Oh wow, a great host like you Paul, I can't believe it! I don't believe 'practice' had a lot to do with it, to you hosting is like riding a bike, it just comes naturally.
You do learn after a while though, every guest will test you in some way, you try to acknowledge all the possibilities but there is always that one that will come out of left field at you .....
Like the guest who tried to dry their ski boots in the tumble drier!
Like the woman who left all her dresses draped across the bed when she left!
Like the guest who tipped a full bottle of nail polish remover over a new Doona cover!
You just can't protect yourself against........people.
Paul, I think I have come up with the idiot proof, tamper proof, abuse proof listing......
All the best mate, I hope you have a good year.
Cheers........Rob
