You know that just because you invite ppl round your house they don't have to tell you all their secrets right ? Or is that the rule in the Fish household.

Anticipating the need to get rid of a few before the night is out? lol just think it would be intersting to chat to loon like him. The others I find very funny in different ways. I hope nobody says daniel negreanu, a legend at the game but he has to be one of the most irrating men in poker. I turn the sound off if he's at a feature table, complete tit.

At first I thought it was the same question as ideal dinner guest, for which I'd probably go something like: Tim Minchin, Christopher Hitchens Jesus Chris Mohammad and an ancient linguist/translator for the latter two. Unless we all have a bablefish inserted, in which case, throw in Dawkins Would probably make for a shit poker game though. Would still want Hitchens and Minchin in, but there's no profits in the Prophets Maybe Slash, Dana White and Anderson Silva Yep, looks like a nice mix of intellectual discussion, music talk and fight talk.

We had our Rorkes Drift dinner night the other night. Lots of memorabilia from the Battle plus some bits from the film, along with readings accompanied by re-enactments. We also had our Corps band along with a Male choir that did, among other things, Men of Harlech. Absolutely brilliant evening and very inspiring. It was a shame I couldn't get photos of the props (big no no to have a phone at these dinners), but the next morning I got a load of me with the rifle, helmet whilst no-one was looking before it got taken back to the museums etc Oops slight derail. My 6 max: Winston Churchill Noamh Chomsky Will Ferrell Johnny Hughes/Doyle Brunson/Benny Binnion Sir Alex Ferguson But like Tikay says, changes daily |
