The Governors House had an opening day today and amongst the lush manicured gardens were very enthusiastic yet restrained men in bowler hats looking like a TinTin comic stepping out in two's and "Ladies" spinning their parasols. Inside was a picture of etiquette, especially the main dining room that was set ready to go for a dinner to be hosted by the Governor and wife Kevin and Liz Scarce. The menu was soup, roast lamb, poached fruit, and cheese. Sound pretty blah - yes, but the table setting was something else. A real treat for all those formal dining freaks out there!
Next time I throw a dinner party my place card will read 'His Excellency' - No shit!
