Field notes
Applications ask guests to describe a favour in their own words, with examples ranging from a plumber recommendation to a second opinion on a shop lease. The mailed card groups six requests without names, and guests can choose not to reveal which one is theirs. The page also describes a Sunday follow-up asking whether guests would return and which favour they offered to do; unanswered requests may be shared with past guests anonymously.
