- The big, bad wolf. He's unlikely to be coming to your place to sample your vegetarian options.
- The Wicked Witch of the West. (Or the East come to that. You may worry about what your neighbours might think if someone like this shows up at your place, they'll wonder where you go in your spare time for one thing, but you should be more concerned as to what the witch wants with you. It is unlikely she's turned up to toast your health).
- A talking cat. I think it fair to say Puss in Boots was not best known for his humility. Do you really want a wise cracking animal turning up, making you look stupid?
- Three Little Pigs. It means their buildings projects have gone horribly wrong and they want you to bail them out. They probably won't mention they're being pursued by a hungry wolf.
- Rumpelstiltskin. A bad tempered dwarf who likes getting people to guess at his name and is highly miffed when caught out is not going to be the best of dinner guests. Best turn away I think.
