A reunion...

...with a college friend. We first met forty years ago, have stayed in touch over the years. What first made our friendship was a shared Christian faith - we still share it. She has faced widowhood with courage, is active with some good local projects, has the wisdom and commonsense that I remember from College - and the sense of fun - and made me welcome with real enthusiasm. It was a beautiful day, and we walked with her daughter and enchanting lively grandchildren through a glorious local park, enjoyed a cream tea, then later talked till late...I caught the last train back to Paddington and was home in the small hours. A day to cherish...
