    Is he hanging over the table or does this cafe defy gravity in some way?

    I never eat while wearing a tie as they don't serve lunch in court.

    I just make ties out of my dinner so when I'm peckish I start nibbling on it.

    No. I get my butler to hold it for me while my maid spoon-feeds me.

    Perhaps he could be introduced to the invention that is the tie-pin.

    Strangely enough, I think the tie was originally designed to keep food off your shirt.

    A bowl of soup is a ties enemy. Always over the shoulder.

    This is why we wear a bow tie for dinner.

    I'm older than Minecraft goats.

    They do in the cells.

    Anyone who throws their tie over their shoulder needs a tie pin. Also stops the wind blowing it over the shoulder, which looks pretty funny.

    How does a tie pin stop food going on your tie?!

    What's the purpose of a tie pin?

    I wondered if this might be my Dad but I know he's not in town today so it's can't be him. :) He does this every time he dines because he has a tendency to spill his food down his front - it's very cute :)

    Nope, just stick it in between buttons 2 and 3 in the shirt.
