Old Friends

What a strange few days...
...Off walking around London at the weekend, I hear a call of my name from behind and it's Andy Fillery, a friend I haven't seen for 6+ years, who's recognised me from a block away.

We had a brief chat, a quick catch up and now we have contact details so can stay in touch.

And then more amazingly...
...Garry Vanderhorne, Someone I lost touch with over 15 years ago and have spent the last few years trying to locate and get in contact with, has just got in touch with me...
...And now I have his contact details, so can renew another old acquaintance.

But, should I ??
Obviously time has moved on and we're different people...
...So is it better to have the memories where things were great and any problems are conveniently forgotten/ignored...
...Or ir it better to renew old friendships and realise we've nothing in common anymore, and the memory is forever tarnished by the reality of strangers forcing behaviour because they want to be "polite" ??

Ahhhh, bollox...
...I'm renewing old friendships and let the dice fall where they may.


Until next time,
Peter
