Boozy stole my bed

I arrived at the house for the first time last night and was horrified to discover that the highlight of my bedroom, (a nice sturdy metal frame bed) had mysteriously decided to teleport itself 2 metres across the hallway and into Boozy's bedroom. Even more mysteriously, the slightly shabby looking mattress that used to adorn my magnificent bed had remained in place, but was now supported by a dated box that looks and feels like it was designed and made by myself in Mrs Finch's year 9 home economics class. Interestingly enough, the stylish mattress in Boozy's room has remained in place, (although of course now supported by a very stylish bed).

Now to be fair to Boozy, I can see that there may be a very good reason why she would prefer this bed... reasons which are probably not suitable to mention here! So I am left with a bit of a dilemma. Should I:
  1. Take my bed back and keep it hostage until some sort of deal can be made.
  2. Be a gentleman and not respond to her acts of theft, (but keep a careful eye on my cheese in the fridge from now on)
  3. Reach a compromise, and just take the mattress from her room, letting her keep the bed.
Embracing the spirit of web 2.0, I will welcome your comments and suggestions on this problem and will be soon adding a poll to the website to help inform my decision.

Hands Off!
I need the frame as it's got to be at the right height for if I get the spare bed. And I've licked the matress so you wouldn't want it anyway. And I'm coming down at the weekend so you'll have to face me if you do anything...

I think that she should let you share with with her once a week, on a day of your choice.

Aww.. be a gentleman and let her have it. Then you get both the moral victory and the use of it to annoy her by bringing up the incident at any given opportunity for the next year.

Yes, I think you have a good idea Steph.
