Perhaps the third time will be a charm in CommunityBuzz!.

To my knowledge I have hosted four Flyertalkers who have stayed overnight.
One is a very active poster on Flyertalk - the others less so these days. The neighbours used to be able to tell when we had enjoyed their company as we would have to warn them that we would be burning the sheets
We have also had the pleasure of entertaining two others to lunch. One brought her husband and he asked for the recipe for the desert. Imitation is the sincerest fom of flattery!
The only tip that I would give is to go easy on your other/better halves. We may find miles,points, postings, and other posters fascinating. Our other halves may find watching paint drying far more interesting.
