Re: friends or acquaintances?
There are some folk back in the UK that I would class as friends. One I have known for 45 years. We don't see each other often but when we do get together we just pick up where we left off. The gap of a few years doesn't seem to make any difference. Since I left college, I've moved around a fair bit. I've made lots of acquaintances, mostly in the pub, and they've all fallen by the wayside when I've moved.
We've been in Gatineau for six years now. I don't go to pubs. I have no friends or acquaintances of my own. We do socialise a bit with some of Souvette's work buddies.

Re: friends or acquaintances?
And at 41 I am struggling to make friends (heck, I am struggling to find enough volunteers to help me do my practicals for the Massage Therapy course I am doing! And I only need 8 each month! You wouldn't think it would be so hard to find people willing to have a free massage (and no, it is not "that" sort of massage... Shame on you for thinking that!
)So, if there are any peeps in Calgary who would be willing to let a relatively novice Massage Therapist (only been doing it 2 months so I can only do back, shoulders, upper chest and arms at present) practice on them for free - get in touch!

While I don't like to think that I am old, I have come to the conclusion that I am very definately middle aged...
