Cat Fight

It is a fact, Women and their friendships with one another are no doubt a minefield.

I honestly believe that it is better to avoid arguments with your closest female buddies simply cos when push come to shove they can have a hell of a lot of ammunition on you! I say this, but in practice only have one out of five close girlies that I have not come to blows with.

BUT being stuck in the middle of two pals is worse.

Here’s the story..

Skinny legs has Rubbed Lonely hearts up the wrong way. As a reaction Lonely hearts has hit some low blows. Skinny legs cannot let it go.

My problem? They have both used their speed dial to get me on side. Oh, I hate women.

There is no point in talking to The Man, through no fault of his own he be just a mere man and not capable of understanding the complex maze that is a girlie row. Furthermore he would be likely to tell me to keep out of it, but already is not an option!

I have done my best to put them both straight but am now accused of sitting on the fence. The fence is good, and probably the safest of places right now… But of course there are future commitments of which the fence is simply not available.

Okay, so a ’knocking of heads ceremony’ will need to take place before either expose any more deep dark dirt on the other. I arrange to get them together at mine for a meal and civil chat.

Both arrive, after an icy exchange get down to the nitty gritty. A few tears and thankfully they solve their issues. I should be happy right? Agony V? Well no - in the comfort of their reconciliation I make small comment on their childish behaviour. Both take offence. They leave together questioning where I get off with such a comment??!!

I am now in the doghouse!

I guess if nothing else I will get removed from speed dial for a bit.
