I'm on holiday for a fortnight now. Away with a group of friends at a chalet that one of them owns. Im overlooking the bay, the sea is beautiful and the weather is fine.

Im quite a bit over 30 - late 50s - and we have been doing this for just over half my life now.

This time, however, one of the friends isn't here, since he is getting more and more reluctant to leave his house at all and has been since covid. Another isn't here because he has just been in for an operation to remove a melanoma.

The effects of aging are definitely being quite prominent at the moment.

Sounds great! I do it too with my friends, we celebrated the tenth edition not so long ago.

Sorry to hear that your friend couldn't join.

That sounds wonderful. Makes me wish I had made more of an effort to keep up with my old friends/make more in adulthood.
