what's a hunt table?

Not sure where to ask this. A Times article on house staging mentioned an Irish hunt table. So, I find photos of those on the web, but what do they have to do with hunting? What are they for?

This has been up for a while, but no primitives, the smartest people on the internet, have replied.

Maybe somebody here can help the turd primitive.

Okay, I just nadined it.

It looks like your standard ordinary sort-of-oval-sort-of-rectangular dining room table.

Some in depth Nadining gives the following:

This form of wine or social table was intended for after dinner drinking with the table pulled up in front of a fire and the decanter being passed on a pivotal coaster or chariot.

Also, used after a mornings Fox Hunting , when the table could be brought out in front of a roaring fire and the drinks chariot could be slid around the table on its track, holding a warming beverage.

The table closed serves as a very well proportioned serving table.

These such tables are extremely rare, though the term Hunt Table is quite common.

Can it be that this trud DUmbass is so bottomlessly DUmb that she doesn't know how to nadin?

Maybe nutcase nadin actually does do a service for the DUmp.

I always figured it was just any table with a boiled potato and a bottle of Bushmills atop it.  :rofl:

:greet: My hat is of to you, Sir. Everyone take note as franksolich has coined a new verb here, to be included no doubt in the next printing of Webster's.

Nadined. >v. NÉ™-deen[ed]. To have been corrupted, Having been used in an act dishonestly for personal gain. To have illegitimately pontificated. To abscond by deceit.
