If only he got the chance to restore it to it's former glory
There's always someone at that bloody kitchen table 24/7 :
Plonking the alleged early morning baguette delivery on it for God knows who to deal with
Cutting up bagettes, morning, noon & night
Lathering said baguettes with the butter that's been out of the fridge on the table for 3 weeks as it's colder in the kitchen
Placing hundeds of cups of teas on it daily
Shoving leftover whatevers for breakfast & lunch on it
Prepping beige slop for lunch & dinner
Peeling garden vegetables all over it
Pulling plants about, cutting flowers stems and placing in vases
Mixing cocktails,
Slobbering over g&t's,
Decanting boxed wine,
Drinking boxed wine,
Plating up said beige slops fo the 'staff'
Plating up 3 courses for 'guests'
Seating anyone that happens to wander in from the garden
Placing Grifted packages on it
Numerous daily Amazon package deliveries on it
Liberty, Fortnum & Mason & Harrods deliveries placed on it to squeal over
Emmaus junk & clothes placed on it to examine and drool over pre-washing
Hatching chicks,
Aunty perpetually peeling potatoes & onions for Dauphinoise potatoes, pressing garlic, jointing chickens, dicing meat, pouing wine
Uncle pouring pick me up Pastis
Visiting familes and other visiting Chateaux owners always drinking tea at it (?)
Unwrapping any present that's been bought by said visiting families
Handling Lancelot and visiting pugs at that table (especially Lancelot)
and last but not least, the odd alleged survey paperwork spread across the whole table to discuss with Davey.
Have I fogotten anything ????
