Lunch

[petal54]

Has/would anyone here invite a random person in for Christams dinner/lunch?

[ummmm]

As in a homeless person?

[petal54]

I suppose so or someone you know vaguely

[corylus]

Bad enough to have the whole family!!! (Joke)

[woofgang]

Actually no I wouldn’t. I would be charitable in other ways but my home is private.

[petal54]

on occasions I've thought about this,but OH'd prob throw a wobbly as he prefers to be less sociable than me

[ummmm]

No to homeless strangers but yes to other people. My dad would always turn up for xmas dinner with people who had nowhere to go.

(well he didn't turn up as such, he'd phone me just as he was leaving the pub)

We knew them on various levels..

[petal54]

apart from the 'we treasures' I'd ignore crimble,we do not see the WT's aon 25,as we live dow south & 2 live up north & 2 in Oz,if it weren't for mum,prob. not see my sister either

[Samuraisan]

No. No room I am afraid.

[Buenchico]

My house is so chaotic/untidy/filthy that I never invite anyone into it for any reason whatsoever!

[Jackdaw33]

I was like that, Chico, till I invested in a cleaner. She is a godsend.

Buenchico, have a tidy up for Xmas!!! Then you will feel better when friends call.

My excuse for not inviting strangers is my living room is too small, table only big enough to sit 4.

Will feed the groom if he is about. He has anger issues, ex prisoner, druggie & his family dont want to know. He loves being around animals mostly. He lives in a caravan nearby.

[petal54]

I really am too messy,my own family only visit if they have to,we are due to sell up,so starting to clear 'mess',22 years of collecting

[Baldric]

I already do quite a lot for homeless Ex Service People but our home is private, I would have to know someone quite well before it would even be considered.

[petal54]

most of O/H's mates are v.weird

[anneasquith]

Tambourine. Nice gesture,

[DaisyNonna]

Think I may be the random person

[petal54]

what way are you random,Daisy?

[anneasquith]

Every Christmas our children were asked if they knew anyone who would be alone or would enjoy dinner at our home .
