Yes strangely enough,about 10 yrs ago,my SIL saw id got one of those contraptions that 'excercise' your tummy muscles for you,(you attach the pads& the electric current does the work) it was in its own case,with all attachments etc,very expensive,he borrowed it and i hadnt even used it,i never saw it again& they didnt even mention it! I did once mention& ask what happened to it but my daughter said "oh i don't know,may have been in loft in old house"(they moved about 4 years ago)more like on ebay if i know my SIL! Its a flaming cheek though isn't it? I wouldnt dare take liberties with anything i borrowed- i used to have a neighbour years back like auntieflo's- they even asked to 'borrow' some electricity via a cable run through window when they had theirs cut off & she wanted to watch wimbledon! stupidly i said yes as i wasn't a tennis fan and i didn't know then how long wimbledon actually goes on. Also,like Gillybob,i sent a plated up meal round to my sons house for DIL,when they lived round corner from me(last surviving plate from a set id loved) and she still has it and wont give it back! That was when my GS was a baby,hes 14 now also,same DIL, used a new superheroes plastic mug (new) at my house,& cause its a superhero she likes,she took it home with her( my yongest son,(then about 13) only had it about 2days!(wondering now if shes a kleptomaniac)
