@midnight_moth I was literally discussing this with my wife this morning! She had mostly guy friends growing up because the girls were absolute bitches. Her three closest friends are now female. It's taken her 40 years to have three real female friends.
@susie_dent I just found out that the word 'dole' derives from 'doling out', a phrase that dates back to the 13th Century. What other everyday words do we use are from are far back as this? Which is your favourite and why? :)
