My fabulous friends

I once gave all my close friends a mug each for Christmas with the words ‘Friends are God’s way of looking after us’ painted on them. Over the years, I have felt so blessed to have the friends I have – my friends have been there for me through many ups and downs (and I hope I have been there for them too when they have needed me) and continue to be there – at the end of the phone, providing much needed hugs (real and virtual ones) and support (and sometimes cake!), making me laugh or just being there to listen.
