Friendship

My daughter was at a festival all weekend with her boyfriend. I was home alone all weekend. By Saturday I was scrolling through my mobile phone contacts looking for some company. I ended up deleting three quarters of the numbers, they were either old work mates I hadn't heard from for years, disasterous dates or old mates who had let me down. My old mucker Tony McNamara being one of them, since he ran off with my Ex, and Duncan Blackhorn who did me out of a few thousand quid pretending to be an online lovely who needed money. I also deleted my Ex, I can't believe she was still on there seeing as we split a good few years ago but I think I kept her number to hand to forewarn me not to answer the phone to a barrage of insults. So after a mass cull I was left with several take away numbers and just a handful of people. My windy, posh friend Piers, my daughter and my recent ex-girlfriend Meryl who still calls me from time to time out of guilt. Next thing you know I'll be blowing up balloons, drawing faces on them and pretending I've got a few mates round. Something tells me I need to widen my circle of friends
