Why are day posters better than night posters? Are they like day walking vmapires?

Exactly.
We suspect that he's just had a massive party all weekend in our house. He certainly didn't stay with his grandparents on Saturday as he was supposed to. Considering the levels of hospitality we've shown to his mates in the past, the utterly contemptible lack of respect that has been shown to us in our absence is completely abhorrent. Never again.

This does mean that I'll probably be in London on my own, while the missus goes to the Galtres festival without me.

Practically every cup and glass in the house has been used and are currently piled up in the sink or on the bench; they've been smoking in the house (they know we don't do this so what on earth made them think it was acceptable for them to do it I don't know) and using cups and dishes as ash trays. And haven't even had the fucking common sense to cover their tracks either.

We're livid, utterly livid. On the plus side, at least we came back and the house was still standing.

The missus sends boob squishing hugs, btw.

That is the plus side, yes.
But he was supposed to be staying at a mate's on Friday and his grandparents on Saturday. It's the deceit and lies that we can't stomach; at least one of the mates he said was here we don't even know, and, like I say, we've shown huge hospitality to his mates in the past and this is how they repay it.

Devil's Advocaat and all that:
My brother and I were trusted with my parents' house when they went away from when I was about 15. Never once did we repay the trust given us - we had fornight-long parties inc indoor smoking, we brewed up magic mushrooms in my mother's preserving pans and at one point made a Dream Machine (see Brion Gysin) out of my father's record player. And all this from our house right in the middle of Winchester College - a massive security breach.

We did have the sense to tidy up afterwards though - but maybe things just got out of hand. You have to slightly high-five the lad, surely?

At least he's not a billy no-mates loser.

The thing is that when you have parents like DG and Sweary who are open-minded, free-thinking and willing to give you some freedom in spreading your teenage wings, to repay them in such a way is downright despicable.

No, we weren't ever really punished beyond having a serious talk about stuff.
My parents were trendy liberals and we were left to do what we wanted, to quite an extent. I never got grounded - but then I never really got caught. Except for once when I had 15 foil-wrapped hash cakes in my wardrobe. Even then I was a criminal genius:

'Why have you got them, and in such large quantities?'

'I don't smoke, do I?'

As BGB says
We are quite liberal with him. Some of his mates are given a hard time by their parents for nothing; others parents just don't seem to give a shit either way. They all say they love coming to ours because of how relaxed it is, and this is our reward for being cool with them.

Little fuckstarts.
