Almost forgot, but on Monday I had a surprise visit from a friend I've not spoken to in over 15 years, Craig Cooper 
I'd briefly bumped into him the other weekend up in Hull, but never got the chance to grab five minutes and chat.
He was down this way with work, and looking at breaking the journey back to Hull. And it seemed logical that Stevenage was the place to drop in 
Great evening catching up on the affairs, loves, deaths, imprisioning, scandal, and stories of everyone from Scouts. Plus filling him in on everything that's happened to me since 1988, or thereabouts. It's even harder to believe how much time's past since last year, never mind since leaving Hull and moving away.
Plans are afoot to sort out a night back in Hull. Catch up with his new girlfriend (can I say, "Wife" 
), and all the other adult-type things (houses, mortgages...). Oh, and, of course, have a few beers
