    Thanks!

    I thought "phil & ted" was rhyming slang for a bed. I got even more confused when something about wheels was mentioned.


    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: that made me chuckle! :o

    You are supposed to let her win and keep it.

    It's sad, but at least you're not wasting any more time or friendliness on such a chancer anyhow.

    I'm wondering if you'd given things to some friends, and she knew about it, so thought she'd try her luck.

    It is sad that some people are just so grasping.My Son once gave away nice wall to wall wardrobe units, the friend collected these.
    An hour later received a text to say he had forgotten to give the screws and would he take them round to the friends house.

    This person is not a friend. And not only is she a taker, she's also a Grade-A p!ss-taker as well.

    I'd be asking for this precious item to be brought back, the money refunded and never speak to her again. Her loss.

    I don't know why I'm constantly amazed at the sheer gall of some people......
