Re: Removing shoes
You will not be allowed in my house with your shoes no
not that I want to encourage visitors anyway Shoes are left in the porch .
I live on a lane which is 'unadopted' and frequented by farm vehicles and the odd sheep. I do not want mess on my carpets. Even Chloe has her paws wiped when she has been out at the front.

Re: Removing shoes
With my animals, it would be a bit daft having flooring that couldn't be walked on and washed easily.All my porch, hallway, and kitchen is vinyl so it's only a two minute job to mop it over.
I wouldn't want mud on my living room carpet though.
I would hope that anyone with really muddy footwear would naturally have the common sense to take it off at someone's house.

Re: Removing shoes
I always hope people will take their shoes off at our door, but I would never ask them.I always do on entering anyones home, and think it is rather ignorant and not polite to do so.
Mind you.
I never have to buy any shoes.
Here in Colwyn Bay there is a Mosque.
Of course before they all enter they have to take their shoes off.
I just nip in and help myself!

As expected.
Actually in the Hotel we go to for entertainment here in llandudno, on one night of there is a a very funny comedian called Bobby Gold.
He tells that joke (and yes, it is meant to be a joke) he has the audience in fits of laughter.
Obviously.
You would not be one of them!

I agree. Me neither.
I don't want an impressive 'show home', I need something we can all live comfortably in without constantly being afraid of marking it.
