my pal Al

It struck me today that Al and I have been pals for almost 40 years.  Good grief.

We worked together.  When we weren't working we sang in an acapella singing group.  There we five of us and we called ourselves The Elderly Brothers which we thought was funny at the time.  And now we are.  

We're all that's left.  One emigrated to New Zealand, the other two are simply no longer with us.

We try and meet up once a year for a coffee and a chat.  If we remember.  Which is getting harder, because we forgot last year.
