Brought a smile to my face, as it obviously did to everyone's. Hard work justly rewarded. Well done that man!

It made me smile too, although he'll never know it! So lovely to hear of an ambitious young man doing well in his studies and achieving in life.

I love chance encounters like that smile - a laugh, a comment, a touch of being human.

How lovely, well done that man!
I too had a happy phone call this morning. My 9 year old grandson called from his holiday in Wales, to thank me for the birthday wishes I sent yesterday to his mum's phone. I sent a little animation and apparently he had been really happy.

I bet he was delighted that you spoke to him! What a lovely encounter.

That is so brilliant. I couldn't have held back either.

Walking up through the woods from the bus stop today, I passed a young man letting his dog sniff around while he checked his phone. There was a yell of exultation. Next thing I heard him obviously on the phone, 'Mum I've passed! That's me through to second year medicine!'. I couldn't help calling back to congratulate him. He was so incandescently happy and so was his mum by the sound of it. I really wasn't eavesdropping as it was a very loud phone call. After phoning his dad (also at the top of his voice! ) He ran to catch me up and thank me for my good wishes. What a nice, happy young man and obviously very relieved. Big celebrations in that family home tonight!
