| I do like table manners. You don't need a special education to know how to act at the table. | |

| I like table manners. I use my best silverware and crockery every day. I do not believe in just bringing it out for guests. I have the napkins. All knife edges facing the right way when I set the table.
My husband thinks I am different but I love it. Before we start out meal each evening we click our glasses.
You guessed what my favourite hobby is. Eating out at lovely restaurants. Have to admit our friends get a giggle out of it too. | |

| I wish we did that joy, i always wanted to have the family sit at the table and eat our meals together like we did when i was growing up. Unfortunately my home doesnt have a dining room as such and where we could sit, the door opens up into the room so its not really practical. Im afraid we eat our meals on our knees in front of the tv | |

| I know a lot of people who have their meals on their knees for different reasons. Everyone is in their own rooms with their computers etc.
How times have changed since we grew up. | |
