Just had an exchange with a couple which didn't flow great and this later become apparent was due to their English not being great (their words, not mine)
I asked if we were meeting they said yes and then I asked how long would it them to get to me and they asked for my address so I provided the postcode. I then asked for a number they have said their English is not great.
They have now gone quiet and I am unsure whether they are offline as busy but on their way to me!
Anyone wish to take a stab at it? |

keep a look out for people wandering aimlessly up and down your street - i worry for people that give out addresses straight away - mind what other info you give out as folk can find out when your home is empty = |

"Did you agree to meet? Did they say they were on their way or intending to set off?"
this is sort of the point, To me nothing was agreed other then if we met it would be both of them, at my place and I gave details to them. However because of the communication issues I am just concerned they are going to turn up.
I would like think not but stranger things have happened.

My post code covers quite a vast area, not sure whether that is fortunate or unfortunate in the circumstances |

"They've changed their mind. Move on.
I am not too bothered if so but hate for them to turn up and I not be expecting it"
Just send a message that you're going to assume they're not coming, as you didn't hear further from them. |

I appreciate your concern but ultimately any potential meet requires such information at some point. We had exchanged photos and I don't deem the request for a postcode unreasonable. You take your chances with fab everyday |

"you gave them the postcode and are now worried they will turn up  "
I gave them my postcode and was concerned they would turn up and I would not be prepared since they did not confirm, this is very different from me being concerned they would turn up, thank you. |

They have indeed. I hate that feeling when you aren't entirely sure what's been agreed. |
