    I was watching youtube last night and was enjoying the music of the Dubliners that it struck me that i would have loved to have had a few pints in the company of Ronnie Drew ,who would you like to have a drink with?

    Oliver Reed for his refinement.

    Keith Moon for his madness.

    Christopher Hitchens for religious debate and his Scotch collection and copious supply of Rothmans cigs. :pac:

    I've heard he was like Dean Martin, pretending to be a bon viveur but he'd keep the same drink in his glass for hours.

    That's not to say he couldn't throw a party, but was he a drinker?

    Yes, we've all heard about his parties in Munich.
