This week’s selection of heart-warming Thank Bank messages as readers express their gratitude for good deeds big or small.

"I would like to give a big thank you to the bus travellers of Lewisham. I am a healthy 72-year-old lady, but I am always offered a seat whenever I get onto a crowded bus in Lewisham. Thank you for your kindness."

Eileen, Lewisham

"Thank you to the lovely staff from the Manor House in Sidcup. Whenever I call there is always a friendly answer and at each visit there is a smile welcoming visitors. This is not the case everywhere and therefore much appreciated. "

Ramona, Welling

"I would like to thank Jane who stayed with my daughter until we arrived, after her car skidded on ice and became jammed on a bollard just off Westmorland Road. Also, the man who came to help get the car back on to the road and quietly disappeared after the event. Such kind people about."

Chris, Petts Wood

"Thank you to the kind staff at Allpets vet clinic in Petts Wood for the amazing care they gave my cat during her illness. They were professional throughout, but also lovely people who often went above and beyond the call of duty. We couldn’t have asked for more."

Steve, Orpington

"I’d like to thank shop workers for their great efforts during the Christmas period. Many customers I’ve seen are horrible, rude and impatient, so it must be very difficult to keep good manners and smile."

Maria, Dartford
