A Drink Anyone.

Hi All.

 

This thread may have been done before, if so I apologise, just ignore it. But I reckon it may be interesting anyway. OK, so it's a Saturday night, you are having some friends and family round to your place for a drink or two. However, this time you can invite six other people, anyone you want to, absolutely anyone. They can be from the past, present or future. Famous, or infamous. Well known, or hardly known at all. Just people you love, hate, or just want to have a chat with. Anyone that you reckon will make for an interesting mix at your place that evening.

 

I will start off with my half dozen:

 

Any First World War Soldier Who Fought In The Trenches. I would ask them how the hell when that whistle blew did they have the guts and fortitude to 'go over the top' knowing that in all likelihood they would be killed? What thoughts went through their minds at that time?

 

Shane Warne. Love him, loath him, a true great in the modern day era of sport. I would love to ask him how he lived with himself after blaming his Mum for his 'drug' slip up. Joking aside, a fantastic sportsman, could have watched him for hours. Reckon he would have some classic stories to tell.

 

The Pope. Simply, I want to know how he retains such a strong faith, even when the worst possible things happen in the world. Though I cannot understand his deeply entrenched faith, I do admire it in a strange kind of way.

 

Ranulph Fiennes. A great explorer, one of the few remaining. I would imagine he could keep us all entertained with his stories about the world and what his next adventure is going to be. I would ask him what he thought about while he was 'sawing' off his finger tips in his garden shed because they were so badly frost bitten after a polar expedition.

 

Tony Blair. Make no bones, didn't, and don't agree with his policies and ideas. But would like to know how on earth at times he dragged himself out of bed in the morning and faced yet again a barrage of criticism about Iraq etc. Was it arrogance, stupidity, self-belief, insanity?

 

Kate Beckingsale. AHHHHHHHHH. http://elc.polyu.edu.hk/filmsociety/07-08sem2/girl_kate_beckinsale024.jpg http://www.mohammadi.ca/media/1/20070526-normal_007.jpg http://www.vipwallpaper.com/data/media/108/Kate_Beckinsale_049.jpg :wink: (PS. The Miissus Is Out, Can You Tell). Kate wouldn't need to say anything. When I got bored with the company I would just look at Kate while she was sipping a cocktail through a straw and the world would be all good again. (I apologise to the ladies of PIO, I'm not normally sexist, but it is MY party).

 

Thank you.

 

Tony.

My Grandad - he died the year after I was born, I have a photo of him holding me, he looked so proud being a grandad ... I'd like to show him the person i've become.

 

Jeff Hardy - WWE superstar, poet and musician - he fascinates me ( and it helps that he's not bad looking).

 

Dawn French - she's witty and bright

 

Billy Joel - for the music and the chat (he's very funny)

 

Steve Redgrave - he helped my son with a project he was doing and sent him a signed photo - I'd like to tell him what a top bloke he is.

 

Eric Cantona - Just because he's Eric Cantona, I don't care if he talks about trawlers and sardines ... he's Eric Cantona !!
