Random act of Kiwi kindness A reader from Mission Bay writes: "Early Monday morning around 3am on Quay St in the city: I had just lost my ride home and had no money in my pockets or on my phone to get home, so I was unhappily considering hopping home on my crutches (I have a fractured ankle). Two young guys walked by and asked if I was all right. I let them know I had no cash and lived in Mission Bay. They instantly hailed a cab for me and gave me $20 of their own money and told me to be safe. I don't even know their names but I know they lived out west. I would like to thank them in person for their random unexpected kindness."
