like shaz would steel anything anyway !!!
Shes a bloody good mum to Reece
Im in the same boat & cnt borrow any books from the adult libary as i lost it lol

I'd ring up, I'm sure they aint that bad. Explain to them what happened. If anything, what they gonna charge you? The cost of the book?
Unless it was some 1200 page Encyclopedia of some sort, ya looking at less than a tenner?
Worth ringing them and asking them what their policy on late charges and lost books is.
Ya won't have to tell them who you are if your just asking

That's what I was thinking. It seems a bit harsh if losing one book gets you banned for life. I would offer to pay for the lost book, I'm at the library most weeks. I couldn't cope if I couldn't borrow any more books.

Why not take the book in and say that you found this at home when you were having a clear out and see what they say. Found this on the lcc website:

Overdue Charges Books 11p per day per item
(to a maximum of £6)

By the way ive lost books and im still a member.

lcl - exemptions from charges

Whats that all about, how does flashys son know that she has a book that she has kept on her house all this time? unless she went up to him and said "listen son i have had this book from the library for a few years now but shhh, dont tell anyone"
Thats not stealing by the way, she borrowed the book, ok yeah she has taken her time to take it back but she still got it so, she hasnt stole anything because she can take it back
