We caught up with an old friend last weekend. After eight years it was like we had seen each other last week. I love that I don't need to see or speak to my real friends every day, but we reconnect each time we see each other. It was a fantastic night, she has remarried since we last saw her and it felt like we had known her new husband for ever. Chatting by the river, having a few drinks and nibbles and a BBQ tea was so relaxing I felt like I'd been on a holiday for a week rather than one night. We had lost touch for many reasons but we both often thought about catching up but would get distracted. I am so glad I made the effort and we will definitely not leave it that long again. So if you have a friend you haven't seen for a while, but think about them, get in touch life's too short not to spend time with those you love.
