Rude guests. Or is it me?

Outrageous behaviour. I wouldn't dream of turning up a friends house, even for an evening, without bringing a gift of some sort, flowers, wine etc. If we ever stay with friends, I always make a point of doing all the washing up without being asked and also strip the bed in the morning. Some people don't deserve to be friends.

Thank goodness, although we have many visitors, we've only had one CF guest in the past few years - a Canadian cousin I'd never met before. He brought nothing, stayed 10 nights, I took him round London to see the sights, he never once put his hand in his pocket.

Dd was more assertive. He was over 20 years older than her, but when he wanted to visit a few pubs, she agreed to go with him - and he sat there while she paid for the first 2 rounds. For the 3rd she said, 'Come on - it's your turn.'

After he left there was not so much as an email to say thank you.
Never again - it will def. be 'not convenient' if he ever asks again.

Oh, Yes the pub round. If you are single and you are out with a couple, why is it I pay alternately and not every third?
