I am like you Retlaw never lending books etc. I had a collection of books, photos on slides and 3D reels which I brought back from a lifetime all expenses paid trip to LA in 1964. There was also viewers for the slides and the reels. Countless people borrowed them and I always got them back safely in and good condition until I lent a so called friend them in 1977. I never got the collection back. She like your 'friend' swore blind she had given them back to me. She had a 2yr old like I had and I suspect he got his hands on things. I would not have been as angry or upset if she had come clean and told me what happened. It was stuff that could not be replaced and I was devastated. It certainly taught me a lesson.
