Its been a very stressful week and the straw that broke the camels back was hearing about the death of a friends husband. A friend is someone who drives you home, miles out of their way because you're too upset to cope with the practicalities and manages to make you smile on the way. It then turned surreal as we had an extra 20 miles diversion because of a car accident on the main road.
Like Foolstroupe said, we all need more friends like these.
