    nah!! Anyway, I've struck a deal with my friend, He's gonna just give me 70 . Thats enough I think, although on retrospect I think could probably have persuaded him to give me a whole Pound!

    Zinggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg!


    You and your mate borrow £300 from another mate and you decide to pay it all back, and only ask for £70 from the mate who you originally sought to share the loan with. What a strange thread!

    Can I ask, what was with only asking for £70 instead of the £150? Do you and your friends all borrow from each other regularly so it would even itself out down the line?

    Exactly. :) 100% nail on the head. I was just trying to gauge a fair contribution back from him really.

    The post about " A Whole Pound" was just a bit of humour/banter.
    If my post doesn't appear to be serious, then it is not serious. So what? Kick back, relax enjoy life and have a little fun. Life is far far too short to be grumpy!!!!

    I don't believe anyone has agreed that an mount as low as £70 is reasonable, but that doesn't seem to affect what you plan on doing.
    loose does not rhyme with choose but lose does and is the word you meant to write.
  • Yea, was just seeing what people though.
