I like this best as it is very vague, it is not a lie and it is a good intro into a line like "You will love the TV, I can help you find a place". You could always use my lovely wife's technique simply saying "you know Alan, he loves his friends, just not in his house". I am quite comfortable under the bus BTW.
That said, in case any of my friends read TOTV and would like to visit me in TV, I would never do this to you
This has yet to happen to us, but my friends are told that the clock starts ticking when they arrive and at 5 nights we enter a probation period and no guests are allowed to stay more than two weeks. It is said with a sense of humor, tongue in cheek, but I think they understand.
