My best friend died today and I am going to miss her. I only had two really close long-time friends and they have both died in the space of a few months. It makes me so cross when I hear the MPs go on about pensions and the fact that we are all living longer. What do they mean ALL? B*ll*cks! So bloody insensitive! My friends lived healthy lives but they didn't get to see old age.

My sister took me up to my dad's and this is the station at Grange. I didn't get to see much of my family over Christmas - I need to make up for it now.
