Whilst we just about survive the piped Musak and the marketing, something not connected to crank length, saddle angle, the big brown in town question, Brexit and the relative merits of hill repeats, turbo sessions and bagging Strava segments...
You're going to be the Hostess with the mostest (wear what you like). You can invite any 6 figures alive or dead to your dinner party. Who would they be? (Let's presume they would be up to date on current affairs).
I'll start.
Winston Churchill
Genghis Khan
Cleopatra
Plato
Charles Darwin
Napoleon

To make the night bearable for them, I'd be down the pub.
What are you going to do to make the night bearable for the people down the pub? :P

If any of them couldn't make it my guests in waiting would be a former resident of Capel Celyn and a scouse councillor of the 60's.

Maybe his evening could be sponsored by Victoria Wine.
David livingston
Ian smith
Camila Batmanghelidjh
Robert Scott
Bear Grylls
Victoria Coren Mitchell
Lewis Fry Richardson
Doris Lessing
Daniel Defoe
Jane Austen
not sure on the seating order though/
All those prominent individuals and then Daniel Defoe?! That's a very eclectic mix. At least the list for Garry H is explicit: he wants to get totally banjaxed with the very best of them.
No Stoaty McStoat?!? He's drowning his sorrows now seen as you didn't invite him.
Got to balance the lads and lasses. Most of them would be good racontuers, apart from Fry-Richardson, and I think Asimov would be able to get him talking.
Julia Caesar
Tony Benn
Dennis Skinner
Joe Strummer
Dave Gorman
Tom Hanks
The Queen
Usian Bolt
Einstein

I doubt an evening would scratch the surface with all I would want to hear about from the above

You've only had him a week, look at the state he's in! I'll pick him up tomorrow, he's coming home to daddy!
I told him that and he said: "That fookin Garry mon is nuffin but a hic a bampot, tell him te sling his hic hook. Am noo gaan back te lentil hic fookin soop an' hic carrot joos hic. Pinno my bes pal in the hole worl' sob sob, hic - that rat Kebab was ace mon hic... Allo. Allo. we are the Glasgow Gers. Allo, Allo hic..."
I tried. Perhaps some coffee and a couple of Aspirin in the morning and he'll see the error of his ways. Soz mate, gotta go - he's trying to shag the cat (unfortunately/fortunately - the cat is sober).
