Friends

Faffed about for ages today deciding whether to join some colleagues for a beer after work, including one I haven't seen for about three years after he moved to Portishead. In the end I went and I'm really glad. We've all known each other for 25 years or more and we've grown up together in a way. Births (and seeing them all grow up), marriages (first and second), deaths (family and good friends), divorces (and near misses), ridiculous escapades (walk 100k in 24 hrs anyone), many tears and much laughter. You name it we've probably covered it between us all.

I didn't stay late but I did have fun.

Santa is a bit early in my book.
