     I'll be the first to admit that I am a technophobe (对技术有恐惧感的人).Who would have guessed
that a website would help repay a 20-year-old loan?
     I'1l always remember my last day at school.My best friend,Jenny,had organized a party in the Sixth
Form Common Room; Jenny asked me to go to the supermarket with her to buy all the snacks."I'm
really looking forward to this party,Stingy," she said.Everyone called me Stingy instead of Debbie
because they thought I didn't like to spend money.Actually,it was true.
     "There's lots of money in the kitty (零星凑起的一笔钱).Let's go crazy!" Going crazy meant buying
enough snacks to feed an army.It came to 19.90,which was a lot of money in 1982.
     Jenny gave me a guilty(内疚的)look."I've left-the kitty money in the common room.Can you pay
and I'll give you back the money?"
     "Sure," I replied,trying to look relaxed.'Neither a lender or a borrower be' was my motto but I
didn't want to look stingy(小气).I gave 20 to the impatient shop assistant.
     Well,the Party was a great success.So great that I completely forgot about my loan until I was flying
to America the next day.I was going to live with my uncle's family until I started university.
     I tried to get in touch with Jenny but her family had moved.My 20 was lost.Until.I'd heard about
a website called Friends Reunited which helped people contact old school friends.My husband helped
me log on and find my school.There she was,Jenny Frost.
     I'm now married with a beautiful daughter called Debbie.Does anyone know how to get in touch
with Debbie 'Stingy' Jones?I still owe her 20!
     We met two months later and the 20 was returned,plus interest(利息)of course.After all,I'm a
bank manager now,so loans are my business.
