Pub, girlfriend, what more do you want
Wednesday 5th August

I dial Jackson's landline number, the phone rings but it doesn't answer. I try his mobile which he doesn't answer. Jackson does this sometimes - he stops answering the phone. I send him a text saying "Jackson. Where are you? I love you man!" as a joke. He phones back, laughing down the phone.

Me: "I've missed you! I've been sidelined for your girlfriend haven't I. Where's Jackson my nightclub buddy."
Jackson laughs. Then says:
Jackson: "I've not been answering the phone. Everyone keeps wanting to talk on the phone to me. I've been on it too long."
Me: "They all want to talk on the phone but not meet up?"
Jackson: "That's it. Yeah."
Me: "I had that too. So I started going to the local pub and just playing pool. I don't even have to arrange anything. I go to the pub and there are always people there who want a game."
Jackson: "Sounds good. How's your date?"
Me: "We're getting on well."
Jackson: "It's a good lifestyle. Girlfriend, pub, everything sorted."
Me: "That's it. What more do you want!"

The rest of the conversation I arrange to meet up with Jackson on Friday.
