Just seen in the paper a picture of some stranded people at Swampy airport.
I feel so bad for the ones with no cash left and are dossing there just waiting for info with nothing else much to do.
I live very close to the airport and have a big gaff with 2 fully furnished spare bedrooms and a bathroom that never get used unless guests stay or a mate gets pissed.
Should I drive to Swampy and see if anyone needs help?
How would I approach people? It would seem very f**cking wierd to me if a stranger was offering help out of the blue!
I don't care if it's a couple of (non-smelly) backpackers or a small family just as long as they are native english speakers.
The last sentence seems very racist, but for communication/cultural purposes this would seem the logical way to go.
I don't want nothing in return, just thinking that I have all this space that could be of use to somebody right now.
What do you think?
How would I go about "inviting" a couple of stranger that need help my house?
Or am I just mad (like missismiggins) and should forget about the idea?
Quick replies would be helpful, 'cos if I'm gonna do it then it will be in the next few hours.
