Act 59: Happy Hallowe'en!

I hope you're all having a wonderful half term week and enjoying your Hallowe'en treats.

As not many people trick-or-treat round my tiny ancient village, I took some sweeties and chocolates round to the two young children that have recently moved in next door as they weren't planning on going out in the gale force winds or pouring rain.

Trick or Treat?

Act 58: Everyone Goes First.

I am back from London! I had a wonderful time, thank you for asking.

Today is "Everyone goes first" day. Which means absolutely everyone goes first. I dread to think what driving through Stokesley High Street will be like today.

Much love,

Act 57: Gay Pride!

Over the Summer, Immy attended Pride, a festival celebrating homosexuality. And seen as we were a little thin on the ground for posts this summer, she decided to write (or talk) about it this week.

She made this.

Act 56: Spa Treatment for Immy's Mum

Another lovely one from Imogen.

She bought her mum a voucher to get a spa treatment. I wish she'd do the same for me. *cough*Christmas Idea*cough*

Act 55: Carried Bags to Car at Supermarket.

I am in London for the next few days so I am leaving you in the kind hands of Immy who will be doing the next few acts.

I have been ensured that although the blog posts will be vague as I am writing in advance so everything stays scheduled, she will elaborate more on the weekly video.

Today, she helped carry someone's shopping to their car at the supermarket.

Act 54: "It's gonna be ok!" Day.

Immy and I always remind each other, whenever we're feeling down, that "It's gonna be ok!" Usually accompanied by a violent hug. So today, we decided to remind anyone and everyone that it's all going to be ok. No matter what's happened, it will be ok.

It's gonna be ok. Trust me.

Yes. This is written on the wrapper
of a McDonald's kid's ice cream.

It was the moment I realised that
I was going to be ok.

Act 53: Acts Done By Others.

When I began the 100 Acts, I aimed to promote kindness, but I only started noticing just how kind others are after I started the project. 100 Acts has really helped me realise that kindness isn't a rarity, it's actually very common and around us all the time.

Today, I went into college on the bus. But, as I was on the school bus in, I got a text saying that the lesson I was going in for had been cancelled - there was no need for me to be at college all day. The lovely bus driver, Steve, drove me home. The bus depot for Atkinson's Coaches is just down the village from my house, so the lovely Steve dropped me off right outside my house. What a star.
