  • I have taken onboard comments left and appreciate the time you have taken to respond. Today i have text this "friend" asking for my money back (i have only sent text to save her feelings, she is with a new partner and i don't want to embarrass her) I will never be put in this position again, but it saddens me that she has spoilt what was a good friendship.:mad:

    I used to get this all the time. I work away in Europe most weeks, and friends would ask me to bring cigarettes and alcohol and stuff on a weekly basis. The paying up wasn't too much of a problem, but in the end I got fed up lugging around extra bags of other people's stuff as well as my laptop which is quite heavy to carry. Sometimes, if you're one of the last ones boarding there's nowhere to put hand luggage beacuse all of the overheads are full, it just adds stress to what is already quite a stressful situation. So, I had to stop doing it, and I was quite open and honest with them all. I time my arrival at the airport so that I'm not hanging around for hours, I don't have the time to browse the duty free shops, I go through security and wait at the gate with my book. They stopped asking after a while. Sometimes you just gotta tell it how it is.
