Old friends meet up to discuss their love life as one re-embarks on the dating scene later in life. Read by Adjoa Andoh.

Lisa and Karen have been friends forever, since they sat next to each other at school back in the day.

Lisa is long married with children and wonders what it would be like to be free.

Karen is single and wanting to be in a relationship. 

They discuss the relative merits of their situation as Karen braves the online dating scene, and reports back to Lisa on a series of dates, some of which hold promise, and others which very definitely don't. 

Written by Diana Evans.
