Most of my friends live nowhere near me. This situation is amplified a thousand times when Neil is away for work. He’s not in the army. He doesn’t work on a boat. He’s a software engineer. And working from home requires some city office time. Apparently. I don’t begrudge that cheeky beer with his mates or his attendance at the pub quiz. Well, maybe a little. I’m really good at pub quizzes. My point is. I miss him. The day…
