Charming and helpful
A really very useful and programmatic approach to manners with many helpful and interesting asides. Sandi's narration is delightful.

A lost art
Thank you, Sandi,
Absolutely brilliant.😍😍
Manners are certainly a lost art, I do love how you refer to others as you tell your story.

Essential for all of culture and times
Sandi captures the essence of what is no longer a passage to a much neglected rite of society. Loved the witticisms and generous serves of humour. Thank you for taking the time to write.

I learned a lot.
Very interesting and educational, as well as rather funny. Human behaviour can be very odd and Sandi uses humour very well while explaining herself.
