I’ve got two very good friends from school who I don’t see very often but I share nearly everything with them. Good friends in the village who I can count on for company and emergencies. And a few other friends not too far away.
I count myself lucky with my friends as my family is shrinking rather than growing.
In the past few months, I’ve given up two friends, one because it was all give on my part and nothing back on hers and another friend who has ostracised herself.
Lack of public toilets in towns.
Passports not in the drawer I always keep them in. Turning the place upside down.
