The Departures

As we watch the back of Liam and Lauren, we are left to ponder: Will we miss them? The short answer is no.

We have each other, right?


Right? ...

Not ten minutes after our last sighting we were in good spirits. We meandered down to Opera Bar to drown our sorrows/look brightly into the future three months. Good conversation, good wine, good view, it was all there. It didn't take long for the warming effects of the mead to occur, loosening tongues, as it were. (That rhymed- You can decide for yourselves if it was on purpose..)

Then it happened.

One of our party, I'm not saying who, may or may not have exclaimed lovingly how sexually attracted they were to bespectacled members of the opposite sex.

This of course led the other person, who was at the time wearing glasses, to an inflated ego. The more beer that was consumed the more they became convinced their friend wanted to sleep with them.

(Ainsley and myself, of course, have an entire 'don't you let me know' history- The story of which is the reason for this blog's Adults Only rating. But I'm getting sidetracked..)

Alcohol was drunk, hands became wandering, the looks grew increasingly lusty. It was at this point that we stopped, withdrew, as it were, and looked at one another.

What was happening? What will happen? With the moral duo of our core four gone, will we be able to keep our friendship platonic?

Only time will tell.

This blog is for you, dear friends, so you can feel like you are still part of our day to day existence.



Watch this space.
