We had a few friends round for dinner last night, and I set the table as I usually do; this prompted some discussion of where the pudding utensils should have been arranged...
I'm not sure what the formalities would be in the shocking case of a meal that finished at the entremet chaud and omitted dessert entirely.
I'd complain loudly to all concerned if I were you. Spoon and fork in hand, drum on the table and chant "We want more" until you get your just desserts.
(NB: This may be a lie)
Which reminds me, I have several people I owe a dinner to (including you) and should really get around to organising something and finding out people's availability.
