Another Fine Mess, who brought with him three nice ladies to assist.

This was a great party and David produced a great feast.
Prior to the party, Tom talked with David while he was grilling the tenderloin and the conversation turned to tuna.
David surprised the party with a healthy offering of lightly seared tuna, perfectly sliced.
While many of the guests enjoyed the tuna, Lyd and Margaret are not aficionados of this delicacy; Tom got the leftovers!
