A related game is to find dissimilar people with the same surname, to imagine as guests:
The Cages came over, John and Nicholas, and the Feldmans, Morton and Marty.
The Matthews were there as well, Colin, David and Bernard.

The Paynes, Anthony and Cynthia.
... which becomes even funnier when you combine Cynthia Payne with Tony Payne's real wife Jane Manning! About 10 years ago Robin Holloway wrote a (still unperformed) opera about Cynthia Payne, called Girls and Boys Come Out to Play. Its moral, as he once told me, is 'pleasure for the masses: a brothel in every town' ... It was commissioned by ENO but they turned it down. |

The city is a process which always veers away from the form envisaged and desired, ... whose revenge upon its architects and planners undoes every dream of mastery. It is [also] one of the sites where Dasein is assigned the impossible task of putting right what can never be put right. - Rob Lapsley

How wonderful - and it leads me of course, to the Holloways, Robin and Stanley. For interesting political discussion, I'd suggest the Bushes, Alan and George. |
