Time of their Lives
Haven't you heard? Sixty is the new forty. . .
Husbands may come and go but friends last forever
You’ll get by with a little help from your friends
Each month best friends Claudia, Sal, Ella and Laura meet for drinks, celebrating 45 years of friendship. They know each other and their lives inside out. Their dreams, ambitions, husbands, lovers, children, hopes, fears, the paths taken and not taken . . .
Sal has spent a lifetime building up a successful career but she hadn’t banked on the one thing she had no control over.
Claudia loves living in the city – the thought of the country sent shivers down her spine. But, as many women will know, other people’s needs always seem to come first . . .
Ella is ready to try something different. But she hadn’t bargained on a complete life change.
Laura has always trusted her husband, yet suddenly she isn’t so sure.
Life may not always be kind, but it has taught them one thing, it’s always better with friends. And maybe it’s time to kick off their flatties and have some fun . . .
