I'm finding myself in this exact dilemma recently. Old workmates coming into my place of work and hanging around til I talk to them and the only way I can escape is to arrange to meet them somewhere.
i sympathise jox....i've tried the cancelling of dates and polite thanks but no thanks. I've also tried grinning and bearing it and it's just too exhausting to repeat. I've also tried being rude. These types people are too stupid to realise that they may irritate anyone because they think they are sooooo awesome and cool!
My recent tactic is to tell them that I don't have much spare time to myself so when i do I like to spend it with my other half, family or close friends..emphasis on "close". It seems to be working so far.
Good luck!
