Going to a friend’s house is very exciting. You may spend time with a friend and get to see where he lives. So remember to be polite.

When to arrive?

The first thing to remember is that when a friend invites you over, you need to arrive on time. If your friend tells you to come around 3.00 p.m., that means you can turn up a little late after 3.00 p.m. But usually it is a good thing to arrive at the right time.

             ?

Often it is also nice to bring something to your friend’s house. This could be a box of chocolates for you two to share, or maybe a movie that you can watch together. You can also bring some flowers. A little gift is a nice way to show your friend that you are excited to be at his house.
