Summary "My wife licks the knife, I hate it!..." Tim Ross"I love hearing about sex... it's endlessly fascinating..." Yumi StynesThe Aunts and Uncles discuss the range of dining misdemenours at restaurants, including diners who reach across the table, pick their teeth in full view of everyone and talk with their mouth full. And what about phones - where should they be kept during a meal, are they able to be brought out to check football scores, settle arguments, and should they really be answered unless it's an emergency?How much should you tip? Is it fine to photograph food? If so, should we take multiple shots, use a flash, and photograph each other's food? And lastly, what conversations should be avoided, how do we not make a production out of tasting wine and is it important not to get so sloshed that you rest your head on the table?
