When you know who can come, find out what they like to eat and drink. Note down any who are vegetarians, or who can’t eat or drink certain things for religious reasons. 

Then plan their menu. Include a first course, a choice of main courses and a dessert, plus lots of people’s favorite drinks. 

The next thing to do is the shopping. Make sure you buy more than enough of everything, and that someone can help you carry it! 

On the day, start cooking early. Give people appetizers like Greek mezze or Spanish tapas, so they don’t get hungry if they have to wait. Serve the delicious meal, sit down with your guests and have a good time - you’ve earned it!

The robot revolution isn't a thing of the future - robots are taking over right now and the world of work is never to be the same again. 

When having trouble swimming in the sea, you will be glad that Emily is there to rescue you. Emily, not a lifeguard, is a remote-controlled robot that races through the water ten times faster than any human swimmer. Despite not dragging you back to shore, she will keep you afloat until a lifeboat picks you up. Elsewhere, the US Navy is working on Octavia, a robot firefighter that never gives up. It battles through the smoke and flames to extinguish fires that would be very dangerous for human firefighters. 

Even the best surgeon's hand sometimes shakes while operating on a patient. Soon though, patients will wake up after surgery knowing that the steadiest of robotic arms will have been operating on them. Meanwhile, in another part of the hospital, a robot nurse, the RP7, will be taking a patient's pulse and temperature then emailing their medical history to a specialist in another country. In the corridor, a fleet of robots will be hard at work day and night collecting dirty sheets, delivering clean ones and distributing food. These robots won't replace humans, but they will allow the human staff to make progress in saving people's lives. 

A robot waiter shows you to your table, takes your order and heads for the kitchen where the chef, another robot, cooks your steak. After a delicious main course, another robot provides entertainment until the dessert comes. It may sound like a sci-fi film, but actually this is the Haohai Robot Restaurant in China where all 18 members of staff are robots. The customers don't need to give them a tip and they only work a five-hour shift before taking a two-hour break to recharge their batteries.
