Random Pics...from around the web

First, I wouldn't be able to identify that as a soup spoon. Very different from what I recognise.
Second, to me the layout is wrong, as the bread plate is in the wrong place, the napkin should be provided by the waiter so doesn't take up any space on the table, and a cup and saucer is NEVER used until after dinner. In fact tea is rarely served at dinner - coffee is far more acceptable in polite circles. And where is the fish knife?!

But it's a photo to show off a pattern, so I should stop being so picky.

Please note I did not grow up with this kind of dinner service; I was a silver service waitress, and that was back in the days when you could still actually get a slap from the Head Waitress if the wrong glass was in the wrong place.
