Ladies & gentlemen, my
esteemed guests:
Should you be planning to attend our
costume tea, on 21st June from 11:00-3:00, please be assured we are assiduously
attending to your every need & comfort. I have personally inspected the
premises and am pleased to inform you that we are prepared to welcome you
heartily to our home.
For those traveling a distance, I
have set aside one of my best chambers for you to attend to your wardrobe and
associated finery.
We will serve tea, hot & cold,
and an assortment of tea cakes and breads.
My domestic staff will be available
to provide tours of our home (and I must once again let you know that my smalt
chamber is the envy of many.) They have placed chairs for your comfort inside,
or, should we continue with such fine, fair weather, you may want to settle in the
garden.
Unfortunately, the groomsman will be
away in the Northern most part of the province so I regret that I cannot stable
your horses or carriages. Frequently, your means of conveyance may find space
in front of the house or at the Portsmouth Livery Company (aka the parking
garage.)
Please contact my Factor, Jeffrey
Hopper (day of event only) should you need assistance.
---Your humble servant,
Jonathan Warner
