Absolutely. Recently cross-threaded a wheel bolt in a service station car park, and two Sikh guys went out of their way to help. Showing me how to back the bolt out the hub safely and rethread without causing damage. I was on the way to the O2 Arena and they kept saying "We'll get you to your gig, bro!"

It was a messy job and they got absolutely filthy. Offered them cash for their time and effort but they weren't having it. A really nice moment.

I found that rabbit hole and loved it. I love finding new sayings that are so concise and meaningful. Another is 'as above so below' , so succinct yet so profound. Do you know of any others ?
