Seriously, it is certainly up to the borrower to make the effort to return any items. They shouldn't need to be reminded, and chased up.
I've lost so many dearly loved books, to people who promised to look after, and return them.
It drives me mad, and shows very bad manners.

The quickest way to lose a friend is to borrow or lend.
I've always thought people who say can I borrow it, actualy mean give it me. I don't borrow or lend any thing. When people say can I look at that, I say yes and hold on to it, if they reach out for it, they get told your eyes are in you head not your hands.
Retlaw.
