The food is excellent. I have decided to go all out, so I set the dining room table with Dad's best bone china and silver tableware. He really did have a taste for fine things, though he always tried to restrain himself. For him they were guilty pleasures, and only rarely would he go all out like this. But the plates are beautifully patterned with gold edging and a fine blue floral motif. English of course. Royal Doulton. Everyone seems too hungry to make a lot of conversation, apart from Carl's at times copious commentary on how good everything is.
I have just gotten a text from Erik, so I will go on Skype with him after dinner...
