Unwanted guests, lets hear your story....

well, I think you have to treat this young man like a 10 or 12 year old kid.
when he takes your chair and doesn't give it back, you must tell him that your legs or feet or whatever hurts when you stand too long and he needs to get up and let you sit down again.
when he overstays his welcome, you must simply tell him that it's time for him to leave now... but he can come back tomorrow or day after tomorrow or whatever.
If courteous but direct talk doesn't sink in, you will have to tell his parents.. and after that, the park manager.
It isn't fair to you or your friends to be expected to entertain a stranger just because the stranger doesn't understand socially polite rules of behavior.

That is a exactly what you need to do.......well said.
Some folks just need 'direct' instructions/requests


Over the past 6 yrs. traveling we have only encountered two situations with 'uninvited' guest.
First time we were sitting out with our dog under awning slipping drinks when a guy with a small ankle biter just walked up and sat down at table.
His dog snarled and ours approached.....knowing no good was going to come from this I got between them and his dog bit me.
Time to go and no you are not welcome back.

Other event occurred at 11pm in a COE CG when somebody knocked on the window of the roadside slide out.
Out the door I and dog went........no body to be found :H
15 mins. later a knock on door.
Opened door with dog in lead.......dude jumped back and in a stutter asked "Do you know what time it is?"
Yep......my dogs bedtime. He left.
