Impeccable Table Manners

Tom and Isabel

What happened on the date

Tom | Isabel
Any awkward moments?
The first 10 minutes, after the host told the whole bar I was on a blind date.
Good table manners?
Impeccable, even with chicken wings.

Good table manners?
Contended admirably with chicken wings.

Even before you get to the end, you can tell these two got on. How? Because they made an agreement on the key table manners question, that’s how. They obviously both demolished chicken wings with all the grace of a pair of starved dogs, but realised they were going to be in a national newspaper and so agreed to save face.

And yet SOMEHOW, an impeccable snuck in there. Oh, Tom.

I added in the awkward moments question as I feel the response adds context and explains why poor Tom blurted out an impeccable.
