- Drink wine in moderation "if situation so demands" but no "bear" (sic) and hard drinks. And no smoking.
- Greet "with smile and not cheaply".
- Learn table manners, including about napkins, seating, roses and candles.
- Avoid getting "closer to past flames or steer fresh passions"
- Dress "simple and elegant" and "not gaudy" but "be with the times" and "don't underdress".
- Keep fit, "don't crib", "don't pretend illness", "don't always fall sick", "don't throw tantrums".
- Know ballroom dancing, some steps of garba, dandiya and other Indian dances, but "don't be vulgar".
- Don't laugh loudly.
