Totally. This is such a great story, and it does show there are decent people out there.

Last week I was sat at the bus stop after my Japanes course (It was late at night) and there was a girl and boy sat there. At first sight - My bad - they looked a bit chav. She turned to me, saw my folder and asked if I was doing a course. Still thinking - My bad pt2 - she was going to take the piss, I said I was studying Japanese. She turned back and said "Oh thats different. I'm studying dressmaking because I make fantasy Costumes"

Not only did this display my own awful misconceptions (I felt awful for stereotyping) but it was just one of those moments when your mouth drops open.

That's just what I needed to read. I've had to put up with a sour faced misery for the last couple of days and it really dragged me down.

Things like that are reasons why I love this city at times.

Dude... we like... need to get together sometime. I'm going insane with nothing to do at times!
