Friends ...

We spent a lovely evening with some friends we've known for over 20 years this evening. We were neighbours when we met and both families having young children spent a lot of time together, especially the mums and the children as the dads, as usual, were very busy at work.

As is the way of things, as the children got older and we moved a couple of miles away we found that we didn't see as much of each other. But the great thing about really good friends is that you can meet up with each other only occasionally and just take up where you left off!

We probably only see each other two or three times a year nowadays, especially since our children have grown up but we easily slip into that old familiar relationship we had years ago.

I think that's a good test of friendship and I reckon we passed that test this evening with flying colours!
