    Think of it as a gift, and you'll be OK, whatever the currency.

    People enter this kind of deal with the best of intentions, but £5k is easily enough money to distort things - and money always does. Always.

    Hi everyone I have a question - A friend of mine wants to borrow £5000 . I happen to have £5000 in euros and am happy to lend her the money. However I had to covert the euros into pounds which was 6400 euros. When I want my money back should I just ask for the £5k or ask for the euros?
