    So mrs deadly and I are visiting Ma deadly in Limerick this weekend. We decided to go and see Munster play the Cardiff Blues as I’ve not been to the new Thomond Park. Tickets were available at the ground but for cash only as we found out to our dismay, having only our debit cards with us.

    We asked a friendly looking chap if he knew where the nearest cash machine was as we wanted tickets. He took a bunch of corporate hospitality tickets out of his pocket and said “Here, some business colleagues can’t make it because of the roads, you might as well have some.” Great seats. On the halfway line.

    Made it easier to stomach the €5 a pint for Guiness anyway. Top bloke.

    I think an equally kind gesture of a donation to a worthy charity equal to the ticket price would be a kind conclusion…

    Good idea masty. Plenty of charities crying out to help the homeless this winter in Ireland. I shall follow your suggestion.

    And ton, you’d have charged me double, and then mugged me for the tickets round the corner. That’s how you operate……………………… 8)

    Pay it forward man, pay it forward.

    Good karma to you, you need to do someone else a favour, simple as that. One thing in life I really truly believe in.

    pay it forward, hmm with those flawed maths you only need to add a chain letter or some cleaning products.

    Nah man, if some one does something good for you, simply do something good for someone else. Simples.

    I do it all the time but don’t ask for return but feel good about myself.

    There are those who won’t pay it forward and just take take take.

    Karma? lol.

    Just be nice because its your nature.
