A Trip Down Memory Lane

Afternoon all!

Well apologies for not having posted anything for about a week - think I must have had writers block as the inspiration just hasn't been flowing for stories to tell you lovely people!

Anyway I'm back now and thou shalt never be away for as long in future!

So I went to see an old uni friend at the weekend, we hadn't seen each other in 4 years so to say we had some catching up to do was an understatement. We barely caught our breath for the first few hours swapping stories of what we'd been up to, then after a pitcher of cocktails it developed onto the 'do you remember when...' conversations. We reminisced for hours - the drunken tales, the people we remembered, the house we lived in, the time we got burgled and we made the gorgeous policemen they sent round check all our rooms before we'd go to bed!!! Any excuse to get a handsome man in your bedroom eh?!?

We were amazed at how little either of us had changed and how natural each others company felt again after such a long time. We went out into her local town in the evening and it was like being back at uni again - only less pints of snakebite and black! Gone were the inhibitions you develop as you get older, we danced like it was our first dance since leaving university and we didn't stop talking and laughing all night.

There's something special about the friends you stay in contact with from uni, a strange bond that follows you throughout life, maybe its because its the first time your away from home and the first time having to look after yourself, or maybe its because the time at uni is most probably one of the best time of your life (minus the study part) and they're the people you share the parties with, the nights out, the dissertation stress, the first broken heart, the list goes on.

Its strange how we grow up so quickly - both of us have homes of our own, nice cars and careers now, oh how I miss those lazy uni days though, nothing has ever beat it!

................my overdraft is still the same though!!!
