    Neither A Borrower Nor A Lender Be

    For some strange reason, in the early hours of this morning it occurred to me that my DVD collection is missing the 'Shogun' TV series that was aired in the seventies (and which was very close to the book and less cheesy than most things aired on prime-time TV in those days). I purchased it after reading the eponymous book and after becoming greatly interested in things Japanese a number of years back.

    Racking my brain, I can't remember who I lent it to but I confess that I have a DVD lent to me around 10 years ago and a book (from a different individual) around 30 years ago. I had no intention of hanging on to someone else's property but after a while it becomes just too embarrassing to flag up that one has held onto things for so long.

    What items do you have that you should have returned a long time ago?

    I borrowed 50 quid off my mate 10 years ago when he was pissed. He has never brought it up so I haven't given it back.

    It's OK if he knows.
    He's one of them that talks you to death in the pub.
    As far as I'm concerned he's paid for my valuable time.
