A tale of Christmas awesomeness, starring the one and only bleedinglottery
I saw a post on one of DIW Carbon threads where he mentioned replacing his stock velcro strap with another.
It's always handy to have a spare, especially when I myself found the strap so comfortable, so I decided to drop a quick PM querying if he'd consider selling it, and if so, how much.
Having a price in mind, and with it being the EU, I was thinking maybe I'd get a bit of a deal, if he wasn't a fan of the strap anyway, win win, ya don't ask, ya don't know hwell:
But to my surprise, this absolute GENTLEMAN offered it for FREE if I covered the shipping.
I know some people get annoyed at bold & underline, but in this instance he deserves a big shout out. :_o_:
I didn't expect that at all tbh, but if anyone happens to read this, they know that the Irish always buy their round, so in addition to the shipping, I sent a little extra so he could have a couple of Steins on me :drinks_cheers:
But this is where he goes above and beyond, again, because instead of having a couple of drinks, he donates the money to a local charity in his area to help those less fortunate.
Humbled by his gesture, following his inspiring lead and remembering where we are, I've just 'replicated' it with a local Irish charity :rimshot:
Anyway, I just wanted to give a big shout out and say that this is one of the many many reasons RWI rules, truly honourable members like bleedinglottery
:cheers:
Thank you again Sir, have a great weekend and I hope you/yours have a wonderful Christmaslugintree:
