I had a lovely moment earlier today: I'd had a mechanical on the hill in Greenwich Park, ended up with chain grease all over my hands, and I was busily rubbing my hands on the grass after I'd sorted it, when I noticed a group of young women walking down the hill and looking at me. When I'd got back to my bike, one of the women walked back up to me and silently offered me a fresh wipe for my hands. She clearly didn't speak any English but, amongst them, they'd obviously understood the situation and the solution that went with it. Because she did it silently, I've no idea what language she spoke, but it was one of those ''kindness of strangers'' moments.

I've no idea why I put this on Mundane News so perhaps I should summarise:
a stranger gave me a baby/facial wipe today.

You could have done serious damage to @stephec with just 'A stranger gave me a wipe'.

My own is that Mrs Smith over the road thanked me for taking the hardwood I'd promised to let her have. I asked if she wanted some more and she said she'd like to chew on it.

That wouldn't have been mundane, but this is -

If your wife has a bad back the ironing doesn't do itself. :smile:

I am going to take an amble up the the 'house clearing' shop. I think that I saw something of interest and I'm going for another look.

I've just scanned a printed a copy of the Telegraph Quiz Crossword so that I can go head to head against my wife. I usually lose because I don't read female authors' works and I don't watch films.

I apologized to my slippers when I kicked them as I walked around a corner in the kitchen.
I thought they were the cat..... Same colour, you see!!
