Warming the cockles of one's heart

It's not just a coal fire that can do this, but friendship as well

Tonight I had dinner at Linda and Brian's - we met when I was in my 20s. Apart from a delicious dinner, the evening was warm, cosy and relaxing - a great way to spend a Saturday night

We reminisced about how when we first met we'd have thought this a very boring way to spend a Saturday evening. Now, we three agreed, it was a perfect way to spend it

Times change, but friendships endure
