LUCAS 

Hi.

P 

So, Lucas, what did you need to change?

L 

Well, about six months ago I realised that I had a very small number 

of friends. But if I thought back … well, seven, eight years ago I used 

to have a lot of friends. And I asked myself, why is that? Well, some 

of them got married and had children and their lives sort of went in 

another direction. And a couple of friends got job off ers overseas. 

But when I thought about it a bit more, well, another answer was I’m 

a bit lazy – lazy about keeping in touch with people.
