        This here is humanity. This is what it SHOULD be like. Compassion, desire to help our friends and a love that goes beyond physical barriers. This feeling needs to wash over society. With friendship like this, there may just be hope for the future. ❤

        it's became so rare for people to physically socialise, the BBC think it's news worthy, this is why I stopped paying for a TV licence,

        Why are you reading stories such as this if you are anti BBC and think this is not news worthy?
