RE: Warning to the UKians (and possibly other Europeons)
You've all quite forgotten the correct etiquette. When you wish to make acquaintance, you must have one of your servants (footman is acceptable) call at the premises where the wished-for acquaintance resides, and leave your calling card with the butler (who may not be the person who opens the door to him, as that is the job of a lower ranked servant) - you must not, of course, deliver the card yourself. The card will then be taken to the person nominated, usually on a silver tray, who will decide whether the relationship is to be pursued. If so, he/she will have a message delivered to your household, informing you of the time and date when you may present yourself for the first meeting. This will normally be in the morning, but not for lunch, as this is only attended by invited guests of good character and some acquaintance. Colonial persons should be advised that it is most unlikely that they will be received into society at the first instance.

It looks like I might be taking a trip to the UK with Zab sometime in the next few months.
