The Peacock 1866

This dining room, or should I call it a dining hall, is huge, massive, spacious and expansive,  the table is long, highly polished oak, with Jesus seated at the head.  The walls are the colours of fine Wedgewood pottery, and are adorned with colourful paintings and tapestries.  Mary, Joseph, Kenny and Amaris are each bringing out the food.  Nothing hot, but plates and bowls loaded with salads, fruits, cheese and sauces and dips and more varieties of bread than one could scarcely imagine.  To drink, lemon flavoured sparkling water is being poured by Lan into each of our fluted glasses.  Jesus has just invoked a blessing with raised hands, and then suddenly Tron appears in the doorway. My lord, we have two new guests waiting in the entrance hall. "Ah, Maureen and Jennifer.  Finally they are here.  Do bring them in, my noble Tron, and so the towering beautiful angelic being sweeps out of the room in a blur of shining emerald and gold...
