Blue Peter: How to make a friend using squeezy bottles

Often friendship comes about from people helping each other out.
Over the years a big source of friends for me has been through doing voluntary work. This gives a chance for people to get together without self consciously saying "I've got no mates. TALK TO ME!"
When I was a lot younger I went to a boys school and had great difficulty ever speaking to a member of the opposite sex. From about 16 onwards I got involved as a volunteer in various projects and before I knew it I had oodles of friends many of whom were girls.
You can find out a lot about people when you can see what they are willing to do without the motivation of money being involved.
