Q: Me and my older sister have had a big fall out recently. She then sent me a message through a family member that she wants back £1000 she gave me 13-15 years ago. I have absolutely no recollection of this. She doesn't believe I don't remember it. At that time I was at university and she claims she helped me out by giving me this money and I was supposed to return it. My question is why didn't she ever mention it to me before or tell another family member. She is claiming if I don't pay it back she will hold me responsible on day of judgement. Please where do I stand? If she can produce a copy of a cheque that old drawn out to me where do I stand?
