Borrowed books
How many times have you searched for a book and suddenly remembered you’d lent it to someone? But who? It’s a killer. You want it back, but you don’t feel right ringing round the likely suspects to find out whose got it. What do you do? When you lend a book, make sure it’s clear you want it back. Write down the name, title and date on a post-it and stick it in your diary or on a noticeboard. When their ‘time is up’ or you want it back politely let them know. This system is great for CD’s, DVD’s and anything else you lend out and saves you time looking for something that isn’t there!!
