Diane and Tesco's

I jumped at the chance to exchange views on mugs with the checkout lady in Tescos. [She was looking for cheap ones] I mentioned that I had been looking to buy lots of new ones for my church. "do you get tea at your church?' She asked in surprise. I told her about the wonderful hospitality we enjoy at BCC and the lovely people. "Do you have lively music as well ?" she asked. This gave me the opportunity to describe the fantastic worship band and even to go on and tell her about the barn dance . "where is your church?" was her next Question. I gave her the Insert from my handbag and recommended she check out the web site for the address." I might come over this weekend." she called after me as I pushed my trolley away, leaving me amazed that no one else had come near her checkout to interrupt our conversation!

It wasn't until after i had done it , that I realized i had been prompted to do a random act of kindness. A friend called round briefly and I just couldn't resist giving away a broach that I was rather fond of!
