I consider myself very lucky to
still be best friends with someone I met when I was just four years old. Lisa
lived across the street from me and we became fast friends the moment our
parents started letting us play outside…times were different in the late 70s!
Forty-one years later and we
are still friends and also fortunate enough that our husbands have known each
other since they were eleven. The four of us have been pretty inseparable since
we started double-dating in 1993.
Our favourite thing to do, now
our kids are older, is to take an annual trip to Butlins for their 80s
weekends. These are the times we let loose, the music making us feel like
teenagers again – I would go as far to say that we might even lose our minds a
little bit!
Dressing up in costume, having
fun and remembering what it is like to be young is what the four of us are all
about and I love our best friends with all my heart…
Our annual Butlins jaunt is
coming up this weekend and I can’t wait to see the likes of T’Pau, Five Star,
Kim Wilde perform as well as tribute bands for Michael Jackson, Queen, Level 42
and Madonna.
I will make sure I share lots
of pics!
Do you have any traditions you
do with your best friends??
