Care to share the oddest thing house guests have done in your home this festive period?

[CharlieWeasleysWife]

We've had many guests over the festive period and most have been an absolute delight. However, have just waved off a few of DHs friends and they:

Removed phone chargers and toiletries left in the guest room/bathroom and taken home

Used (a used!) dish cloth to wipe their face then replaced on the sink

Complained we won't allow scary/violent TV until our young children are in bed

WTF?

Edited for typos

If for example, you are in a hotel that has a fixed head shower and doesn't provide flannels, how are you supposed to wash your vulva?

Premier inns don't provide flannels but hiltons do.

I think this is a bit unfair, to be honest - they did ask first? You could have said no!

Taking a big chunk of the wedding cake is out of order though.

so you’re annoyed that they took you at your word?

My mother was in hospital last year and I was too, different hospitals and we were both given flannels along with towels.

You can't think how you'd wash yourself ? 😂

Flannel, flannel, flannel, flannel, flannel, flannel, flannel, flannel, flannel, flannel, flannel, flannel, flannel, flannel, flannel, flannel, flannel, flannel.

Aaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrggggggghhhhhhhhhhhh.

To those who have had stuff nicked, loaded up and taken home etc, my in-laws have clearly stayed with each and every one of you during the festive season. They help themselves to anything they want and it's a family joke now.

With soap and water and your hands???

What a complete waste of a good thread.

I always do, and I don't see them as personal items myself. If the guest does use one I'd always want there to be one available for them. Not sure why you wouldn't, tbh.

Have you really just asked other people in real life how they wash their vulvas? Do you ever look at yourself and wonder what happened??

I agree - although this doesn't deal with the WHY. Unless the sister cannot be parted from her *bassoon (unhealthy relationship?) or is within days of her inaugural bassoon solo with the Northern Philharmonic - why on earth would she NEED to take her bassoon away with her?

*(Also applies to an oboe, obviously).

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Tried to change title to 'Face and Arse washing advice, with and without flannels' but sadly am unable.

Not true. Higher quality hotels have black face flannels that are placed next to the sink together with cotton wool pads, single use make up remover sachets, and cotton ear buds and other toiletries for guest use. I travel a lot on business globally (every 3-6 weeks).

You are absolutely right, @Vroomfondleswaistcoat - it doesn’t answer why she brought the oboe/bassoon - it’s baffled me (though that isn’t difficult, at the moment, sadly).

Handstand

🤣🤣🤣

I can't get over the one who has nudist guests and apparently doesn't feel entitled to tell them that hers is a clothes-on house ...

😂😂

I need to direct you all back to the post about the older couple who broke the bed shagging?

Could be a whole other thread about having sex in other peoples homes..

I’v e never broken a bed . Must.Try.Harder 😛

I’m athat guest! I’m allergic to dogs and no amount of “but Rover is non shedding” is going to encourage me to invite you with the dog. If you invite me and I go then that’s different. My friends, with dogs, know I’m allergic and will encourage their dogs to settle down and not jump all over me! They do not take offence when I wash my hands after saying hello to said dogs and do not feed their dogs from the table!
I love my friends so will put up with the runny nose and streaming eyes to go and visit. I’m also intolerant to antihistamines so can’t take those unless they want me to sleep through the invite! One friend insisted I take a couple of her “special” antihistamines - half an hour later I was comatose in her lounge and she had to call my DH to come and pick me up. So her “darling” is now shut in the lounge with her DH while we chat the evening away 🤣

@Festivespirit85
Arriving early is the pits

This was especially as we negotiated and agreed the time in advance. It was moved to accommodate the couple 2.5 hours early. Standard behaviour for them, they run to self centered. Other people rang from outside to ask if it was too early. Yes it fucking was.

@RasaSayangEh if you browse the Baker Ross website they have a selection of enamel paints, acrylic paints & pens. Hopefully you can find a match.

I haven't read the whole thread yet, but I really cannot believe anyone will be able to top this!

Of course!
