Sometimes people just want to have someone to listen, to find you in the place they need you to be and just to be a friend. "Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend." -Albert Camus Here . . . and there . . . and everywhere I am lucky to have those. You should all be given a star ******

I agree with you, friendship is so important. So, will we still be friends if we beat you in the World Cup?

@Inlemay believe it or not, I don't mind if Australians included in that list. After all, southern hemisphere must stick together

I do not want to be your friend because you keep laughing at our Rugby team.

@Inlemay Laughing at our National Sports Teams is a British pastime and we do not wish to share it with the rest of the world.

I am not laughing AT your rugby team I am Laughing at the way they played their game vs Wales - surely the Prince of Wales told the Queen of England there was going to be some blood shed on the field during this game?

Real friends are often hard to find. When you do find one it is best to hold onto them. I can count my true friends on one hand.

@Jessicalynnt That imagination will be calorie free - but not the real deal - that probably would make you put on a kilo or two.

If Albert Camus said it it must be true. I don't like it when I moan about something to a friend and they feel that they have to fix everything for me. I've stopped sharing a lot for that reason. Just let me moan please then I''ll get over it!

I believe in moaning without being analysed - that is a friend - Moan to me, I shall listen, toss in a word and let you get over it - but the release from our side is essential for our own sanity!

It is better to have a really true and trusted friend rather than have many acquaintances who are not really there for you in your hour of need.
