Old Friends

Someone once said that a woman needs five sorts of different friends. Unfortunately I can’t remember the categories - it went something like a new friend, an old friend, a friend you can call on in time of need etc etc.

This is a photo of a meeting I had with some very old friends - though we’re not THAT old yet girls! I have known one or two of these ladies since I was seven years old and the others I met through them when I was a teenager - we used to meet up every Saturday night at each other’s houses from the ages of about 14 to 18 and then we went our separate ways, though we still keep in touch one way or another. However we met at last a few days ago and here we are. Some of us haven’t seen each other for well over 30 years and it was as though all those years in between never existed  - we were still the girls we always were.

I guess we age outwardly but on the inside we’re always the same as we always were.

Here’s to the next 30 years - though maybe we won’t leave it as long next time.

See you soon.
