Out of interest, feel free to post to the minute!

Let's say this is not a very, very close friend, so you don't have a pre-existing idea of their expectations / preferences for your arrival time.

Being frog-marched through to the table on arrival, plate of food in hand, to Sit Down & Eat just doesn’t sound any fun.
