Russell Crowe makes me feel good

There is so much negativity in the press these days that it makes a change to read a ‘feel-good' story and today I found one about bad boy actor, Russell Crowe.

Apparently, while filming a new Robin Hood movie in Sunningdale, Berkshire, the actor with a reputation for volatile behaviour queued in line at the till of a Cancer Research shop before asking assistants if they would accept a donation.

He was apparently directed into the back of the shop where he signed his name in the donations book having given the charity £1,000.

A volunteer told reporters, "We couldn't believe it when Russell Crowe came in and gave us the money. We knew he was in the area and we were all hoping to see him, but we never thought we would get quite so close to him.

"We were all a bit star-struck, but it was lovely to meet him and he stopped and took the time to speak to us."

And last month, it was reported that the star gave a very generous £600 tip to staff in a Welsh pub after they served him and his nine friends with dinner.

Pub staff said it was the last thing they expected and that he was "friendly and chatty like a really nice guy."

Well, now I can like him again – I feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Aaah!
