  ya'see, when i posted a mail on our kingdom listserv about a year ago 
  about feasts that had been held up and sometimes destroyed because of long
  courts ( something which as a cook seemed to me self-evident ) i got back
  a lot of flack from many folk, and one ex-king in particular, who stated
  that i must be imagining things because nothing like that had ever
  happened and had specifically -not- happened at the event i was discussing
  (where i had been head cook).  

Nothing like that had ever happened....

The one time I co-autocratted a coronation, the feast was ready to be served
on time: but court was running about an hour and a half late.  The dinner
was brought from the kitchen, stacked on tables at the rear of the hall, and
the smell, eventually, from the many wonderful dishes brought court to a
crashing stop.

It was a durned nice feast.  Worth putting the King on notice for.  (:-)
