Absolutely and fair play to all involved.

Amazing how this sort of thing doesn't make the main news isn't it? Why can't they mix the horror they like to tell us about with this good stuff?

Be a nice way to end wouldn't it! Finish off with a light story.

I know mate, but it's usually something light but dumb rather than light but uplifting.
