Today is my friend's birthday. We've known each other since we were at infants' school in the 1950s.
We don't see each other often - in fact for about 20 years, but he was like a theme running through my life. We went to different secondary schools, and I left home at 18 never to return (except for the odd few weeks here and there), but we've kept in touch. Do we know much about each other - probably not, but he's still a constant throughout my life. We all need that kind of constant whilst friends and acquaintances come and go - especially when families are so inconsistent.
