I remember doing it at some training course donkeys years ago but the scenario was everyone had to pick one person, give a brief presentation of why you picked that person and then the winner would be the one who got the most votes in a private ballot. Naturally I picked Tom and he ended up getting the most votes.....ahead of even Mother Teresa, Elvis and John Lennon
I wouldn't have elvis over for dinner and john lennon's voice drove me up the wall, great singer, horrid speaking voice.I would be forced to toss him on the porch at some point during the meal. I would have Mr. Baker over for dinner, but dinner here is a very casual affair and you may sit where you like or even stand up for that matter- so the term " dinner party " hardly comes into play. The cats have learned to stay off the table during meals, except one , " Captain Jack", a big yellow tabby, he is immune to water pistols. I read that yellow tabby's were a favorite of the vikings and often traveled aboard the ships with them, so that may account for his fearless demeanor in the face of the storm. We have had many a stand-off over my lunch, Jack and I. So as long as Mr. Baker is willing to take on Jack, he can drop by anytime
