People often say “Come to see me soon”，but don’t believe them! You should ring someone before you visit them to make sure that they are not busy．When you first receive an invitation，you should think about if you really want to go．Nobody will be angry if you don’t want to go．You can say, “Thank you，but I can’t make it this time．”
If you accept an invitation but later realized you can’t go，you should tell the host or hostess as soon as possible．If you receive a written invitation that says PSVP（please reply），you have to tell the host if you will be going or not．
You don’t have to bring a gift with you．However, people think it is polite to bring a small gift if you have been invited for a meal or are going to stay for a few days．If you are going for dinner, the host or hostess will be happy if you give him or her a box of chocolates or a bottle of wine．
A guest should ask their host or hostess if they can help in the kitchen．Offering to help is more important than actually helping．If your visit was for a few days，you could send a thank you letter to the host or hostess．If you had a meal，you could give them a telephone call to say thank you．Why should you ring someone before you visit them?
