Friends are friends and always welcome. Just have to take us as we are. A friend once said the good thing about old friends is they know how you live and accept you anyway. If I go to anyone's place and they start apologizing about the state of the house I say " I've come to see you because I enjoy your company and not to look at your house".

This is how I feel, however, was let down by someone i considered to be a good friend, who commented on the housework to all and sundry. If they don't like it, they don't have to come.

I don't mind good friends who just drop in, it is the people who I don't see forever who do the drop in. Usally my friends will give a call first whether I asked them to or not.
