Do you own Square Plates?

[Moos]

A powerful message, simply delivered. I particularly like the use of the royal we.

[charliecharlie]

does that count for plate in the singlar as well ?Bob*???

oh how sad a friendship lost before even made.... and all over one plate...

A square plate.. a platter.. is perfectly acceptable as a serving dish.

But as soon as you give everyone one each, you've crossed the line.

I was given square plates and I like to use them if I'm serving up square meals. Once a sailor, always a sailor.....

[*Bob*]

Brum,

On your journey from the cooker to the table, square plate in each hand, do you stumble, totter and roll - to give the impression of being on the high seas during a heavy swell?

I'm interested as to what was actually served on said "square plates"

( I see it's been difficult but if you could recall that moment )

I really need to build a better mental picture of the event

Course by course of course

Lastly , what colour were "they" please ?

Gravied meats, seasonal vegetables, plus jus.

I suspect that there may have been some form of asymmetrical raised seashell motif patternation, but (as you can imagine) we were putting our coats on long before it could have been exposed.

[Mick Mac]

We are just about to buy some square plates Bob. So. no we don't, but we soon will do. :)

[*Bob*]

What's your thinking, Mick?

Something to go with the square etched-glass coasters?

[Brendan]

Jus?

Rhymes with truss, no?

Really...

that really happens in people's houses, you know "jus.."

Now don't tell me, there was a "grilled goats cheese" starter

Or a Parma Ham & fig/melon combo

I'd say they were LibDem voters with a Tory twist

Am I right..?

Or were they just regular recovering heroin addicts ?

( aren't they all, eh ? )

[Brendan]

You are only allowed to serve grilled goats cheese on a square plate aren?t you?

[*Bob*]

Don't forget the artistic squiggle of brightly-coloured sauce.

Known in the trade as the W@nker's Drizzle

[Brendan]

How they get it to come out of the tomato sauce bottle so precisely is anyone?s guess.

What's your thinking on oval?

[RosieH]

Turkey.

No - we are intending putting them on a square table.

Not sure I see the point of circle plates? Can you think of a good reason why they might be a better idea?

[katie1997]

Circle plates are a better idea if you're not partial to grilled goats cheese with a balsamic and white wine jus drizzled just so with roughly torn fresh Lebanese mint leaves, artistically arranged with ruby jewel-like pomegranate seeds.

Thank got you don't have a drop-leaf table, Mick.. those drop-leaf plates are very hard to find.

[Mick Mac]

I don't believe in got, Bob. Who he?

[*Bob*]

I don't believe in Got, Mick.

But one thing's for sure.. if there is a Got, he aint got not square plates.

[Mick Mac]

Got died on a cross Bob - he was a big fan of symmetry.

[*Bob*]

That was the sno of got, Muck.

[*Bob*]

And the natural pedant in me is duty-bound to point out that a crucifix isn't symmetrical, and that a round plate is.
