    I peek sneakily out the side window and then hunker down in my living room all quiet like until they stop knocking.

    I do the same thing!! I just can't do it to people who know me because they KNOW I'm inside! :grumble:

    ^^This! Unless it's my BFF, who knows my house is in a constant state of disarray and that I may or may not be naked, and could not care less.

    I have soo done this before!

    I don't get hardly any uninvited or unexpected people so it is all good. Mainly cause most people don't know where I love now that I have moved! So that is a nice part. When I was married we had his family stop all the time and talk about uninvited and unexpected... well by me at least! LOL

    LOL, me too. Even if they SEE me, I pretend I'm not there.

    I don't answer the door.

    I'm not even joking. If I'm not expecting anyone, and I don't see a Canada Post or FedEx truck out side, I don't go anywhere near the door.

    I'd buy one of those SCRAM doormats. And when they come to the door, tell them to look down.

    If they know I'm home (because of the car in the driveway or windows open or whatever) I just tell them it's not a good time for me. I then suggest a time for them to come back. Depending on who it is, that may be in two hours, it maybe in two weeks, or it maybe at a time I KNOW they're not available! :devil:

    I'm on the opposite side of this because due to my job 9 times out of 10 I AM the unexpected visitor. Honestly the best way to handle us where we don't get upset (I've been made to cry before cuz people can be real nasty) and your blood pressure doesn't go thru the roof is just to answer the door and tell us that it's not a good time and your not interested. Politeness goes an extremely long way. :)

    Living in America it was quite easy to duck and hide until they went away. However, the annoying custom here seems to be to invite the unexpected and UniNvIteD guests into the house and offer a cup of tea....it gets really annoying especially when you don't want visitors and they ruin your plans for the day.

    If they have something to say, I hear them out.
    If they want to stay, I tell them now isn't a good time.
