The Legion of Recovering Aonghais' Squires, ah yes, an august group which
includes my lord husband.  Get him to tell you the Tale of his resignation
some time, preferable on the outside of several horns of mead.  On the other
paw, Aonghais was not stupid [intelligence and wisdom being entirely separate
dice rolls!] and had several good lessons to teach.

Meanwhile, back at the topic, these 11 sky-nosed snipes need to be taught a
lesson in humility, a frequently-cited yet seldom-seen quality of nobility.
May I suggest you let them serve the "common" tables and get the best servers
you can under the age of 17 to serve head table.  The "cute" factor will
overcome any minor gaffes they might make, and they will be dazzled and
grateful!  Just a suggestion.
