Default Re: Should I steal this money?

Jeez dude! You do get yourself in some situations don't you!

My recco is, if u have enough to scare up a bus ticket, give ALKA a ring and he'll more than likely loan you a pony for food.

I've borrowed money from 'Alka' too many times already; I really don't want to ever ask him again. I don't like to borrow from friends, and I count him as a friend. You know, it sucks to call someone up and have a good honeset sincere empathetic conversation, while all the time both of you know you've really called about borrowing money. It is bad for the self-esteem to borrow money and compromise friendships over it; even if you always pay back. So I would much rather take this abandoned small change, this £6.50, than ask a friend for a loan.

On the assumption you have paid it back every time, he won't turn you down, especially when it's to keep you not starving for 4 days.

I believe his policy is similar to mine when I was in London town. I had a neverending supply of score, pony, and bullseye loans for those who desperately RQD them AND who paid them back eventually prior to asking for another loan.

Either Way good luck.
