Re: Shoes on or shoes off?

Unless the weather is inclement I don't expect visitors to remove their shoes... If someone begins to remove their shoes and it's a nice day...I'll tell them not to bother.

Our family take shoes off if there's a rugrat in the house.

I would never ask anyone to take their shoes off but most insist on taking them off!!

I am not houseproud, I dont care if people keep their shoes on, whatever the weather.

Re: Shoes on or shoes off?

I never ask anyone to remove their shoes and have never been asked to remove mine when visiting anyone,it seems very rude to do so ,unless there is a medical problem

Re: Shoes on or shoes off?

My family always remove their shoes as I do. Visitors normally do but I don't ask. Work men usually wear those plastic overshoes, if they don't I will ask them to remove their boots. It's rude to trample your way over carpets in dirty boots.

Re: Shoes on or shoes off?

Curious.....I see a lot of you have mentioned carpeting. Here in Canada many homes are just laminates, hardwood and ceramics. Might be bedroom carpet only.

Is carpet common in the UK?
