My Mate

On the face of it, he has done OK, In these internet times, it is easy to locate a Company Director, It was always his destiny but made traceability easy. We had many laughs but, not sure it was a healthy friendship, still, the geezer blew many preconceptions in the pecking order of the estate yobs, it will take a lot of thought, to think if there is anything to be gained to link up, and chew over the past, sometimes laughs belong there, in the past.

How long is it since you've been in touch, Spitty? People change.

Re: My Mate

If you got on then yes do it.
I went on a school reunion a year and a half ago
I was a bit concerned but it was one of the best nights i've ever had
Made so many re-acquaintances/friends

Your past will be your bond (at least) for the day/evening but you don't have to become besties afterwards if you don't want that.

Do it Spitty... take life by the horns
Live it.

It might be the best decision you've ever made!
If not then you've lost nothing x

Re: My Mate

I think it's a fine idea to reach out to old friends. I think you are likely to have a fine time. Why not!

Re: My Mate

Sadly I tried that through a friends daughter, but the friend didn't really want to know, we did chat for a while, but she has never got back to me again.

I've got the very same decision to make Spitty. You make some very applicable points.....

Cans of Worms, worms don't belong in cans, except for folks who wish to fish. An Auditor always wants to correct the Record Book, usually attracting unwanted consequences.

Re: My Mate

There are reasons people drift apart. I wouldn't bother if he hasn't. Unless it's a bromance thing that is.
