Who would you invite to dinner?

Jump to new
Actually, who am I kidding? I'd like pretend I'd invite intellectual types, or great musicians or so forth, but who I'd really like to gather around the table would be:

George Clooney
Brad Pitt
Matt Damon
Matthew McConaughey
Johnny Depp

I wouldn't be able to eat a bite, as I'd be too busy drooling, but what the heck!
 
L.Ga Ga,
P.Hilton,
J.Zemiro,
J.Simpson,
E.Clapton. (To teach my missus some riffs later on.)

You are only allowed 5 mate.

May I be the one to execute one of these, or does anyone on asf have any favourites for an ass full of lead.?

You've got some great dinner guests coming Julia. I'd like to come to all of them...as a fly on the wall...but then again I'd probably get swatted if Bunyip is getting his tools out of the shed.
 
A dinner party with traitors.

Jane Fonda
Wilfred Burchett
Anthony Blunt
William Joyce (Lord Haw Haw)
Brutus

Just to find out why they did what they did.

Absolutely not, Fishbulb. As organiser of this mighty dinner party, I flatly refuse to admit Eddie McGuire. Now Cher, that's quite another matter.
Sorry.

gg, I think that should be a sub-dinner party, or maybe a 'coffee later' group for those aligned to that particular interest.

The numbers are getting a bit out of hand, not least because you've had several goes at putting forth your nominations. This hardly seems fair when e.g. Fishbulb and Gumby have elected to bring either a mother or a dog only.
Perhaps you could review your multiple nominations and select the five as originally suggested.

Alternatively we will have to have multiple dinner parties, in which case the vote is now open as to whether the guests should be from a single interest group, i.e. all hunky blokes as described by DocK, all beat generation poets/writers, all novelists perhaps combined with composers, etc etc.
Or would you prefer multiple dinners with a representative from the different categories of guest?

Anyone with views on the above, or anyone who has not yet submitted a guest list?

You'd be welcome in any capacity, Harleyquin. We could offer you a special commendation for continuing good humour in the face of significant adversity.

I'd like to hold a politicians dinner party.....Whitlam, Hawke, Keating, Rudd, Gillard.
And I'd love to include Anna Bligh as well, even though she'd be one more than what's allowed under Julia's guidelines.

I'd put something very interesting in their food!

You have to invite 5 people mate, so you've only got 4 left.
