After wracking my brains, which was hard cause I had to find’em first, I bethought myself to see if Lisa was on FaceBook. And she is!
It’s ages since I spoke to her and haven’t clapped eyes on her since before R was born - we went to see her at a cottage in the Cambridgeshire fens, and had a wonderful weekend of farm shops and fireworks - R didn’t seem upset by all the explosions, and I remember thinking he’d really like fireworks once he was born! He will be attending his first official fireworks night this November, in fact.
My lovely pal, my bridesmaid, my college colleague, who has now got her Doctorate and is set for great things. It’s wonderful to know she’s still about and contactable.
As I’ve said before about friendship; you know it’s the real thing when you can pick up after nearly 2 years and it’s like yesterday. This is time-travel for real.
