Dear Colonel J H Mayne,
Thank you for sharing this informative and exhaustive guide on dining etiquette. You have practically covered all that is to be covered on dining etiquette and table manners. I have personally benefitted from many details given in. Many congratulations for the efforts you have put to create this.
I have 2 queries for which I request your opinion:
1. On Slide # 3 ‘How to use Napkins’, paragraph 3, it says that if I am excusing myself from table, the napkin is to be placed on the side of the plate. However, my understanding is that ‘napkin on the table, means end of the meal’. If I excuse myself, I am supposed to keep the napkin on the arm rest of the chair. Could you please clarify if my understanding is wrong or the napkin placement suggested in your PPT is used in a certain settings.
2. On Slide # 10, paragraph 2, it says ‘If the host stands up during toast, we need to stand up’. Again my understanding is that one does not need to stand up while anyone is raising a toast. Could you please clarify about this as well.
Thanks,

Dear Mr Sanganeria,
Your first query: There are two schools of thought on this etiquette-one you place it on the left side of your plate (I am with this and we followed the same during our "Dinner Nights" in the Army) and the second school is that you leave it on the chair-to show that the place is occupied. Since its a Sit Down Dinner -so the issue of it depicting the end of your meal is not in doubt as you will end your meal along with the Host or the rest.
Second Query: Men will always stand up when Toasting-women will remain seated. In the Army whenever we Toast The President-we toast with water.
Thank you for your comments-I am fascinated with proper etiquettes because you do not step onto others toes-decorum is maintained and no one's health is in jeopardy!! I am a trainer at heart. Please do visit my page for the rest of the PPTs
