A lovely story, I hope it is true. The good thing about young people who are thoughtful and caring is that they will probably bring caring generous children into the world in the next few years, so carrying on the good genes that are around. Better than the people who only care about themselves, they just seem to produce hoards of youngsters who continue the scrounging way of life.

Special thoughts to the families and friends of the lady killed and those others injured and shocked.

Ann I asked that question too, but I was told it has been verified by a nurse from the hospital. However I am only repeating what someone else is saying.

That is loverly as all we seem to hear about are the disruptive young. Also the thought that they hung around in case blood donations were need. Caring, thoughful young people.

There have been some dreadful events in Wales in the last few weeks, and it's easy to get depressed and disillusioned with it all.

A story like this certainly helps to restore faith in human nature.

There is more good than evil out there, and those young people prove the point.
