10 HOUSE RULES FOR YOUR RELATIVES

7 years ago

While I'm a bit bored, thought of writing down some guidelines for your relatives (different guidelines apply to you) when settling in Pinay Land.

Best place big sign outside your front door (you'll p!ss off everybody, but it's either them or you being p!ssed off):

1. Do give advance notice when coming intending to stay the whole day
2. Do not stay overnight if not invited or expressly agreed to
3. Do not borrow/use anything without prior permission
4. Do not ask for loans
5. Do not ask to borrow clothes or jewellry
6. Do not enter a bedroom without knocking first (and wait for answer)
7. Do not smoke anywhere near the house
8. Do not turn on the TV without asking
9. Speak only English at the dinner table
10. When in the presence of husband, always speak English
