I hear you jdawg, I live on my own and work away, so when I'm off work its for a decent period with no reason to go out, being single again at the moment it very very easy for me to slip into being a hermit, I'm of that nature anyway were I'm quite content with my own company, but that can be quite a dangerous thing, and like yourself I need to make more of an effort really, coming back from a bad knee injury as well, which has made me worse, but now I'm playing footy, and occasionally going down the boxing gym again, I'm a lot happier, without even realising I maybe wasn't before. Your clearly a top lad though, and even if we lose contact with old mates theres loads of new connections with people to be made
