I would like to host a dinner party for Tony Curtis, who has such a terrific memory of all the glamorous years of Hollywood, and my other guests would include Betty Bacall, because she is such fun, Maggie Smith, because she has a wicked sense of humour and let me see....balance it up with Richard Griffiths, who would add a lttle weight to the after dinner conversation. Although I could fill a rather large restaurant with all the people I should like there.

Given that Patrick would probably tell me to get stuffed, I'd hope to finagle my way to Ralph Smart's table.

All those moments lost in time, like tears in rain.

My workplace is currently offering a once-in-lifetime opportunity to win dinner with the Chief Executive by simply saying, in 30 words or less, why this would be the dream of your life. I'm not making this up.

Sounds like an ideal opportunity for a really sarcastic sentence or two....
How much ego has this CEO got???
