10 chosen people at your dinner table

[Robert Taylor]

Heres a bit of fun. As an avid reader of especially 20th century history both political and warfare Ive often thought of interesting people Id like to have at my dinner table. Im a committed tory, anglophile and hanker for what was a more polite world ( arguably ! ) So here goes;

1) Margaret Thatcher. My all time political hero and a lady of singular mind and purpose that made England great again. Might though dominate proceedings a little!

2) Enoch Powell. A politician that personified ethics and so many of his prophecies have come true. An extremely brilliant mind.

3) Joanna Lumley. Her origins are classic and I admire the fight she took ( and won ) to the UK Government to have Gurkhas accepted as bona fide UK citizens, given all the dirty jobs they have done for the UK in many conflicts. A very classy lady who would provide great conversation

4) Jorge Lorenzo. Ok Im a Yamaha fan first second and last but you have got to admire this guys never give up attitude. Plus his smooth riding style is a pleasure to watch. Maybe the odd one out at this dinner table but Ive got huge respect for him.

5) Michael Foot. An odd choice for a tory to have a committed Marxist at his dinner table but this guy( admirably ) had the courage of his convictions and would certainly stimulate conversation. British politicians of all three main ''flavours'' are also so much more eloquent than the generally mottly lot we are burdened with here

6) Winston Churchill. A man both flawed and brilliant and a superb orator. Plenty of alcohol and cigars required.

7) Emma Shapplin. This Parisian songtress would provide much needed eye candy at my dinner table and her application of opera is a delight

8) Sir Keith Park. Of all of our war leaders he was the very best and certainly should be placed miles ahead of General Freyberg, whose loss of Crete to German paratroopers was due to manifest incompetence.

9) Lord Soper. Habitated Speakers Corner in Hyde Park for decades and I was lucky enough to listen to the great man in the twilight of his career

10) Richard Branson. Because he personifies ambition and success but in doing so carrying people along with him. Probably a tory, bless his heart.

If anyone wants to follow along but with totally sincere guest lists....................

[jellywrestler]

make mine the Spice girls and they can each bring a sister...

[ellipsis]

...Joanna Lumley and ummmmmmmmmm....................

[mashman]

1. Einstein - Seemed like an all round genius and nutcase that no dinner party should be without.

2. Stephen Hawking - for the fly on the wall moment whilst him and Einstein discuss "stuff".

3. Socrates - not the footballer, the Greek philosopher. He could have saved himself before he was "murdered" by the state for a "crime" that never was and I'd like to ask him if he'd make the same decision again given how life is today.

4. Martin Luther King - Someone to accompany Socrates and t'woud be interesting to find out what he'd think about Obama and the effort he put in for his Nobel Peace Prize, amongst other things race rlated.

5. Jaques Fresco - A long list of achievements and a solid understanding (the father of maybe) of the resource based economy. A modern day hero of mine.

6. John Lennon - He'd make up an interesting trio with 4 and 5 and could bang us out a tune once all suitably shitfaced.

7. My Mum - She has some interesting views on history and politics (staunch Maggie supporter) that would no doubt have her at logger heads with just about everyone at the table. T'would be fantastic to watch.

8. King Kenny Dalglish - footballing (soccer to the non-english language speakers) legend. Gonna need my football talk... he played when diving was still a pool related sport and managers were to be feared... would love to hear what he thinks about the beautiful game today. (might need a translator though)

9. Mr Loughran - My english teacher. About the first adult I ever had any real respect for. A smart big scots bastard who enjoyed his football and treated students with more respect than I've seen in any teacher I've had dealings with. Be great to see him again.

10. The big J.C. - Whoever he was. Be interesting to find out.

I don't like the likes of Hone and Minto. They're both full of shit cunts.

Rach is every bit as compelling, and even smarter. I'd simply have to have her along, not only because she laughs at my jokes.

Reitsch was unfortunately a Nazi yes. But despite that, I love what she did in an area not many women dared go. And I'd love to see her and Bader go at it over a few reds!

[martybabe]

Kenny Roberts, Biking God

Brian Ferry, The coolest music Dude ever

Albert Einstein, He was wrong and I can prove it . E=MC2 my arse :laugh:

David Bowie, Legend

Paul Henry, a bit of controversy is good at dinner.

Bruce Lee, I'd like to show him my deadly one inch Fart.

A lady friend from Madeira, She's Hot and has more energy than an Atomic bomb.

My Bride and best friend, one and the same.

Adolf Hitler, Him, Henry and Einstein (the Jew?) sat together could be interesting

Bob Geldof, to stir the conflict should it quieten down at any point.

There you go: Arrogance, ignorance, intelligence, prejudice, beauty, talent and controversy. Throw in plenty alcohol stir and sit back and watch the entertainment. :shit:

[jellywrestler]

Bruce Lee, I'd like to show him my deadly one inch Fart.


you know he's gay!

[Crasherfromwayback]

Heck I like all of the list that I recognise,

I'm going to modify my list...because I can. I'd forgotten my all time hero. He was/is THE man.

Antoni Gaudi. Seeing his works in the flesh last year with Rach, was awesome to say the least. If there's anyone else on earth that's made such gorgeous things, I want to see them.

[martybabe]

you know he's gay!

:laugh: Even better, Adolf a Gay a Jew and a Geldof.

If one of these guests were unable to attend then I'd invite Jack the Ripper (just to find out who that MFer Really was).

[munster]

The big J.C. - Whoever he was. Be interesting to find out.

I agree, John Cleese would be awesome to have round for dinner

[Mental Trousers]

William Hayward Pickering - he had the coolest job in the world - explore space!! The Kiwi who was the head of NASA's JPL
Nicky Whelan - it's my dinner party so it's going to be one chair short and she has to sit on my knee the entire night
J Robert Oppenheimer - his work changed the world, past, present and future. Be great to find out what he thinks of all that
Bruce Anstey - He rocks
Colin Edwards - the guy in the MotoGP paddock that everyone says you should get on the piss with
Ron Jeremy - short, fat, hairy and ugly. But he nails hot young things every other day of the year!!
Josh Freese - best drummer ever
Bernard Spilsbury - the original Forensic Scientist. Abby from NCIS, Temperance from Bones etc etc all owe their characters/shows existence to the work this guy did
Rick Stein - likes his food relatively straight forward and simple but that doesn't mean boring and bland. None of the shit that you get with those other clowns.
Charlie Sheen - somebody has to bring the mind altering drugs!!

[ellipsis]

Reitsch was unfortunately a Nazi yes. But despite that, I love what she did in an area not many women dared go. And I'd love to see her and Bader go at it over a few reds!

...thats what they were all going at it over anyway....

[MIXONE]

I agree, John Cleese would be awesome to have round for dinner

Well I put Camron Diaz, she is enough woman for any man.:drool:

Guggenheim Bilbao was what I was thinking of particularly.

I am a big fan for Frank Lloyd Wright personally: particularly the "plains" houses. but, you know, Fallingwater.

[Crasherfromwayback]

Rik Mayall would be a good guest ...He could discuss the finer points of economic and social theory with Maggie Thatcher. Maybe teach the old trout that a return to Victorian values was not the way to go.

I think the socialist that I decided would be at my dinnertable ( Michael Foot ) actually had some decorum and could teach the new breed some manners.

4) Admiral Jellicoe

5) Walter Kaaden

6) Ronnie Peterson

Yep, she sure sorted out Galtieri and Scargill. Very well done.

[Grumph]

The egos inherent in some of the lists frighten me....I'd sooner have a bunch of like minded people who have great stories to tell.
I reckon video this lot over an evening and you'd have a large part of the unwritten history of NZ motorsport - and we'd all have fun too.

Jim Cashman MD

Ned Kelly - the Timaru one
Jack Brewer AMIMechE
Hec Green AMIMechE
My old man AMIMechE
Robert Holden

The two jims and Ned as a group with some beers in are the life of the party
The three senior engineers have an incredible history as a group - Jack Brewer ran the Lady wigram meeting for years as well
Robert and Bob - can't have one without the other
Ginger and Mike - stories from overseas ancient and modern

1: Rossi; he's a legend and talks funny.

5: Roger Waters
6: David Gilmour, two of my favourite musicians and no doubt good company.
7: My best mate.
8: My mother, she'll show them how to cook a real meal.
9: Adolf Hitler, his facial hair would look hilarious if he got soup on it.
10: Jonah Lomu, just because.

[Crasherfromwayback]

What are you, wierd or something??

Of course I am. I've been riding since the age of ten, and in the industry for around 25 years now. I still love 'em, and happily talk about them 6 days a week, seven when I go racing. But given the chance to have an interesting one off dinner party...do I need no one but bikers there, so we can talk bikes?

Fuck that.

except Waters and Gilmour HATE each other. unless thats the issue. Get them likkered up, fisticuffs ensue.

and Gilmour particularly is as far from the Whiskey RockaRoller as you can get. Honestly his personal demeanour in interviews is as hilarious as a Chartered Accountant, specializing in tax.

[HenryDorsetCase]

Why is no one inviting Brian May? if you get bored talking about music you can sing '39 and talk astrophysics.
