Can't accommodate?

Hi,
I notice in many adds both on this site and others that advertisers often put they can't accommodate. Talking to a couple during the week they are desperate to link up with a like minded couple but a very shy of using a hotel. I likewise can't put any one up as I have children to concider. I have a furnished house in Hull that is only used occassionally from Tuesday evening to Friday morning by a business man. Can people give me some indication as to if they think it is a useful idea to make this house into a meeting point for like minded couples at the weekend. Say paying a modest amount to cover cleaning, possiblity of drinks cupboard being depleted etc. The house if fully equiped with alarms and security and is discretely situated. Any thoughts of a constructive nature please. What is it thought I would need to provide? How would I get people to know about it? I already have sorted out how I could only let those people who have booked gain access. I don't want to make a deal of money at this but perhaps I might meet somebody to have fun with.

Hi, Tel...
Can of worms, that one, mate! wink
By charging an entrance fee, you immediately invalidate the insurance. Say if one of the guests hurt themselves, OR accidentally set fire to the place and kill half the street, you're on your own.
If you go the way of registering it as a fee charging venue, you then face reams of legal requirements such as Health and Safety checks and Tax returns.
Consider this.... although it seems such a simple plan, if it were workable wouldn't ever other bugger be doing it already? :twisted:
Hxx
And on top of what Heather said, if you are charging a fee, you wouldn't be able to advertise it on here.

Couldn't people pay "in kind"? lol
Someone in Sheffield was prosecuted under Section 8 of the 1751 Disorderly Homes Act for doing exactly what you're suggesting. I'll see if I can find the details later, sufficed to say, if your neighbours catch wind of it and aren't impressed you'd better hope the magistrate's feeling liberal :shock:
Edit - here's what the law has to say:
In Prosecution for the Offence of Keeping A Disorderly House:
* Show that the house is "Open"
* That it is unregulated by the restraints of morality
* That it is run in a way that violates law and good order
* Knowledge on the part of the defendant that a house is being used in this way
* Persistance i.e not a single instance

Furthermore, from R v Tan& others :
" In R. v. Tan 3 (in which the cases cited above were considered), the court observed that many forms of conduct may fall within the scope of the offence of keeping a disorderly house. Establishing a universal definition with precision is both undesirable and impossible. "
(I am not a lawyer, nor do I play one on TV, a lawyer would be able to find more cases to scare you with !)
Very impressive Jon Jon..... :shock: wink
Further to all that, besides the legal issues, someone is actually living there, albeit only part of the week...... how would he feel about his house being used as a knocking shop.... tenants rights and all that? confused
Well, thats the end of that. Having had the idea to help others and only not loose any money, it seems that everbody wants to point out the cons. As for the week day person, who the hell charges a friend anyway, he is a keen as me to make proples dreams and fantasies come true. I may have a awful lot of cash but believe me that does not make you happy in love. I had hoped to see some smiling faces around the joint and even a thank you now and again is all I want. :cry: I am told I am not unpleasant but am too shy to ask a loving woman for what I need and crave, although I am 50 I still not able to overcome the initial "point of sale" It seems that in Hull there are few places to meet the right type of like minded people.

I don't think it's seeing the cons so much as preventing you from being sued/prosecuted.

At the moment, but he may change his mind later after countless breakages and the place being left a mess or even thefts. Which leads us back to the point above again.

Well you're more than welcome to stick around here and have a laugh, meet some new friends, possibly in person at a Munch and if nothing else, give your confidence a shot in the arm. wink
Edit: non of the above posts were there when I started this post, so please don't think that we're all ganging up on you. redface
Adding to Heather's notes ;
the house insurance issue is very important
IF there is a problem, say a simple one like a lass busting an ankle per high heels and a tirp hazard, and the resident has received any form of benefit beyond a reasonable contribution to the party fare then the insurance carrier could make a case of refusing to support their insured in any action taken against same.
Sounds unlikely, doesn;t it, BUT
at the last two parties we attended an ankle injury did occur
our insurance carrier, when asked about the extent of cover, stated quite clearly that even something as prdinary as receiving 3 bottles of vino would be viewed as a benefit equivalent to an entrance fee
so have a care folks

I am rather puzzled that people should be shy of using hotels, especially the larger ones where anonymity is easy. I would agree howver that some of the small boutique type hotels or pubs out in the country might raise more than an eyebrow if more than the checked-in-couple suddenly disappeared rather obviously in the direction of just one room!
