D Squared said:Glad you had a good time Rebecca & congratulations again, you are so deserving. There's still an Alexander Keith's waiting for you
They did not have Keiths there tonight... but I did get to have a Sleeman's Honey Brown
Not the same of course, but still good 8)

There I was, minding my own business on the the Subway (metro) when a University student (who had been standing next to me for a few minutes) suddenly turned around, offered me her hand while saying "thank you" before stepping out of the car. 4 or 5 other students followed right behind, doing the same thing - the last one getting caught in the door as it closed.
Made my day!

I remember riding the metro in Montreal on vacation once and ended up with a scraped jaw. Probably because it hit the floor so many damn times. ;D

Sure is a nice change from getting spat on and called a baby killer on that same subway

Wow,
I now remember when I first posted this thread, feels like ages ago now.... The client I initially spoke of when I first posted this thread, that had nominated me for the award... I am still working for her part time through the week. Last night for Halloween, I took my daughter to her building for a quick visit, and all of the residents were waiting to give out goodies to the kids. They had some pretty awesome Halloween decorations out also. I probably wouldn't have thought of even adding this, but I noticed it was recently posted on and as I read along, got me thinking back to last night.

Heh....
There I was, minding my own business when this rather rough & scruffy looking individual started to give me the hard stare.
At one point or another, he starts talking directly to me in a language I have absolutely no idea about... I gave him time to finish what he was saying & told him in both French & English that I did not understand what he had just finished saying.....
Another hard look...... then he just thrusts out his hand towards me, says "thank you", shakes my hand and wandered off with a wave...
Still not sure what it was all about but I got a lot of smiles from the 20 or so people who were around me at the time.
It feels good to be in uniform these days!
CHIMO!

Boy how times have changed. I remember when we were "discouraged" from wearing our uniform in public. Now not a 2 week period goes by when I don't get a thank you, a handshake, or occasionally a free timmies ;D. Some are Vets (I always say "No, thank you" to them), but most are typical everyday citizens. Sure makes you proud and makes the day just that much more enjoyable...
