Apart From Relatives

[jennyjoan]

Do you like visitors visiting you ie not expecting you or do you enjoy them. Just curious.

[Prudie]

I don't like any visitors turning up unexpectedly, it's always been a pet hate of mine

[ummmm]

The only ones that would pop in unannounced are close friends so I don't mind. If they aren't close enough to walk to the fridge and help themselves to a beer/tea/coffee...then I'd rather have notice.

[pusskin]

I like to have at least one hour notice, to have quick check that its all tidy, washing up done, and put lippie on.

[jennyjoan]

Ummmm - I am quite close to most of my friends but that I wouldn't like anybody to go to my fridge - I'll offer them tea.beer whatever but I would consider that very rude - like wise I wouldnt do that to them either.

[woofgang]

Outwith an emergency I can't deal with unexpected visitors at all and wouldn't expect to pop in on other people.

[bookbinder]

I prefer anyone who is thinking of visiting me to give me some notice. Anyone who turns up unannounced would be made welcome, but I would not be happy about the intrusion.

[jennyjoan]

sometimes when they call - they control the situation of when they go home - I have one who doesn't want to go home at all - that's a nightmare.

[Rtaxron]

If you mean visitors arriving without notice, its my biggest bugbear, especially if I am cooking, watching a good movie or having a shower.

I have CCTV and if somebody calls without notifying me, and Im not in the mood for them, I dont answer the door.

[pusskin]

My next door neighbour pops in every 2 or 3 weeks, no notice at all, and sits and chats for hour or so. I dont mind as we have a nice chat, but I'd never think to do that to her.

[Sqad]

Bloody hate them, including family........especially family.

[Baldric]

So long as they've stopped off at Threshers (other Offies are available) all are welcome.

[jennyjoan]

Ah you are a geg Sqad - knew I'd get an answer from you like that.

[-Talbot-]

Do you like visitors visiting you


no.

I meet my potential visitors in the pub and under no circumstances give them any indication that they are welcome to my home.

[jennyjoan]

sqad - do you not adore your wee grandkiddies?

[Prudie]

I've often thought when out with the dogs you'd be reasonably easy to spot. Beware of weirdos approaching you with a bottle of wine saying "are you Baldric"

[-Talbot-]

I'm more than happy for the wife to have her mates round...so I can naff off to the pub with no stress.

[Mamyalynne]

Don't like unexpected visitors, appreciate a call and some notice.

[Sqad]

JJ...no, I can't stand the grandchildren and hopefully they can't stand me.
Completely undisciplined and when one tries to discipline them one gets that "what did you say?" look from the parents.

[grasscarp]

Anyone approaching me with a bottle of wine is welcome.

[ummmm]

Jenny...we've all been friends since we were kids. Over the years many of our friends have lived here on and off.

I worded that badly. They'd ask if they could have a beer.....and it's help yourself.
