Because you can’t spell ‘Wedding Breakfast M’ without ‘Fram’…

Eagle-eyed readers will, of course, note that the Fram was not, of herself, an icebreaking ship and that therefore structuring the title and introduction to a blog post in such a way as to imply that she was is something of an untruth.

That’s actually quite handy, because we’ve now allocated the seating, and ordered stationery for the seating plan and for place markers. For those of you coming to the Breakfast, the seating plan tells you what table you’re sitting on, and the Place Marker tells you which seat you get when you arrive at the table.

For the benefit of other people at your table, we have as promised procured Place Markers which say your name on the one side, and an interesting fact about you on the other. Mostly.

Most of you will have an interesting fact. A few of you have got an absolute untruth. Your choice, therefore, is to either cop to the lie, and instead offer a more interesting fact about yourself to keep the conversation flowing, or to roll with it and see how long you’re able to convince people that the lie on your Place Marker is actually the honest truth. Plus, of course, you can try to work out which of your fellow diners is trotting out fibs.

There’s at least one liar per table, although up to half of you could be liars. Mostly, though, people are telling the truth and that alone should get the conversation rolling. But, should you care for an extra edge, you’ve got one.

Snazzy.
