I have to say that normally, I prefer to know certain people well before they crash in for a sleep at our home.
But that's just me. And we live in crowded quarters.
I just found out from dearie, that we might have 1 of his business pals crash here for overnight if he misses his ferry ride homeward.
Well, at least the guy is another cycling enthusiast. So more cycling chat.
This is terrible of me..but I just don't feel overly obligated to clean home from top to bottom on such short notice tomorrow. I was planning to go bike riding for a few hrs. (after not cycling for last few days) and do much needed grocery shopping plus work that I dragged home from workplace.

Then don't. wipe down the guest bath sink and that's it.
It's a little secret you didn't know about us women. We're all closet Visigoths.

The house is what it is. If he wants different accomodations, I'm certain there are plenty of hotels in the area.
Enjoy your bike ride. And if Dearie wants a cleaner house, let them clean it.Beth

If I were told by my dh that some business friend of his was dropping by to spend the night on short notice, I'd probably stick to removing my smelly bike stuff hanging to dry in the bathroom - and leaving his
And then I'd take it as an invitation to go off and do something fun all evening on my own.
Good luck, ss!Winter riding is much less about badassery and much more about bundle-uppery. - malkin

And even if he does... who cares? Betcha he didn't notice anything (if you did not clean anything).

My partner didn't suggest at all to clean house. He just wanted me to know MAYBE there might be a surprise overnight guest.
Actually my partner would notice an exceptionally messy house. He is much neater/tidier than I.
