I just mean that I haven't always taken responsibility for the lack of social interaction in my life, preferring to believe it happened quite by chance.

Thanks for the kind words. You're definitely welcome any time you want to drop by. I'd love to show someone round and I'd buy you a wonderful curry. And if we didn't get on, I'd leave you babysitting my cats and bugger off to my parent!

[hijack] Just to clarify - the issue with my cats is that they are house cats and people-dependant. It wouldn't be a question of someone popping in once a day to dish up food - I could find someone to do that. They would cry themselves hoarse if left alone for more than 24 hours. So I'd need a real friend, who was willing to move in for as long as I was away - that's what I don't have (closer than 70m away).

This was an issue this weekend as Dad was rushed into hospital Friday night and at the time it was a suspected heart attack. He's still in for observation, but it's been diagnosed as angina. They're being careful because he had a blood clot on his lung last year following his knee replacement. He goes for a full set of tests Monday. Anyway, it made me realise that without friends nearby it is harder to cut and run. If it had been serious I'd have had to take them with me.

[/hijack] and apologies for interrupting an interesting thread!
