Not much to add really. It had to happen sooner or later, yet I still feel so ashamed.

Is there any sort of tupperware etiquette we should be aware of?

Yep, remember these sort of events are strictly tea, coffee and a chance for the ladies to show off their homebaked goodies. Ensure your wife does not sneak in with a cask of wine or make tasteless jokes about what you could get up to with the corn cobber, sniggering at people who order the $69 beetroot drainer is also frowned upon. Above all do not mention tupperwear was all the go in england 1962.

Does this mean, taking a case of VB, dropping my trousers and doing a rendition of waltzing matilda on the table would be inappropriate.
