As I promised here is a litle post on What to do when invited to a party.
These days etiquette is not something you learn in school like one used to. Not here at least. I was so lucky that once a year my parents were invited to a national meeting of the machine entrepeneurs sosciety of Norway, and my father is a highly respected man in that circle and was chairman for many years. So me and my sisters were expected to behave properly and have good manners. I used to think manners and etiquette was boring, stiff and unneccesary, but I have come to appreciate and expect it. In my oppinion etiquette is something everyone should learn.
