I have been asked to put together a set of songs suitable for a Trafalgar Night dinner here in Shanghai.

The challenge to me is to come up with a set of songs that a group of (possibly drunk, at least in their cups) business men could easily learn. Some will be from the UK others from the other countries that make up the ex-pat community here.

I am looking for ones which could be familiar to at least the Brits and ones that have an easy tune and hopefully a good chorus.

So far I am considering:

Hearts of Oak
Blow the Man Down
Hanging Johnny
Bold Nelson's Praise
Nelson's Blood
Drunken Sailor (or a decent parody for businessmen)

There could be an opportunity for some readings to so any good prose suggestions would be gratefully received.
