About Me
- PTR
- A raging Bruxist, I grew up on an ostrich farm until I was mistaken for a woman one time too many. Leaving my angsty post-teen life as one of three only children, I flew to Stockholm where I unexpectedly won the Man Booker Prize for lengthy blogging about being short. I'm perplexed to report that I like painting tiny Romans.

Yes but do it anyway. Order a starter of baby octopus as well. It'll be worth it.
And baby corn?
I think it would be more of a faux pas if you were dining with a herd of cattle.
Fortunately in that case they would be unlikely to speak English so my order would probably go unnoticed.
What's the collective noun for a table of pediatricians? Is it a toddle? A play-group?
I bet in Germany, it would be a Kinder.
BTW, I think they only get angry if you try and order them all happy meals (wow, happy=anger?).
As it turns out, the collective name for a group of paediatricians having dinner is a rort. We got there a little bit late, got to nibble on some shared entrees that were floating up and down the table, then ate a couple of bits of pizza. By the time we'd done that, most of them had left, leaving meagre amounts of cash to cover their meals AND drinks. So the pizza ended up costing us about $10 a slice.
Hmpf.
