    Manner and Eating


    Habits

    Many invitations to an Aussies home will be for a 'barbie' (BBQ).

    Guests to a barbeque typically bring wine or beer for their personal


    consumption. In some cases, very informal barbecues may suggest that
    you bring your own meat!

    Arrive on time if invited to dinner; no more than 15 minutes late if invited


    to a barbeque or a large party.

    Contact the hostess ahead of time to see if she would like you to bring a
    dish.

    Offer to help the hostess with the preparation or clearing up after a meal is
    served.

    Table manners are Continental -- hold the fork in the left hand and the knife
    in the right while eating.

    Indicate you have finished eating by laying your knife and fork parallel on
    your plate with the handles facing to the right.

    Keep your elbows off the table and your hands above the table when
