| The M'man's Guide to Carving Good day. This page is for those M'man's/Acting Lt.s who are fortuneate enough to be invited to a formal dinner. You never know if you'll be asked to carve, and well, I know from expirence it's better to be prepared. Mr Bracegirdle and Mr Hunter have been so kind as to share their knowledge on the subject: *Remember, cut away from the bone. *You cut venison thick, mutton medium, beef thin and monkey you sort of mince with a chopping motion (I later learned this was said in jest) . *Do try to remember not to saw at poultry. Unfortuneately, they didn't know anything about carving a suckling pig (you must be very careful when inserting the fork-they are generally very tender). Sincerely, Lt H.
