Ok ........ you're stranded on a desert island........

What 3 things would you take with you?

This cannot include:-

People

A boat, plane or any other mode of transport


Mine would be:-

1) Lip balm........ Can't stand having dry lips (and no dirty quips from the cheap seats please!)

2) Pen

3) Note book


Really boring I know but I write a lot and it would pass sometime.


What would *yours* be?

Two boxes of aircraft bits!
and the world's best selling edition of "HOW TO BUILD YOUR FIRST JUMPJET"

Rope

A Toolkit or at the very least a saw

The biggest book I could find (although would also need my glasses - are they allowed?)

Transport Cafe (for good fried breakfast)
Pub (For lunch and a few drinks)

fantastic.... and no drunk or annoying people to share it with!

Where is this island?

A laptop.
Bill Gates's credit card.
The Raffles Hotel.

cannabis seeds
big knife
binoculars

mirror for signalling to passing aircraft

watch with in-built distress signal that gets detected by sattelites [cant remember who makes them...]

water treatment tablets

Holly Valance in a see through grass skirt with no underwear.

A 2 person hammock.

Can't really think of a 3rd item... Too busy using the first 2 ;)

There are powerpoints on this island right? - There is, good!

My iPod
Toolkit
Big pile of sketchbooks and pens

Laptop/PC with great speakers and internet connection

Sounds like a fun Island :D problem is weed and big knife!!!! be too stoned to even care abount killing animals and eatin em, just get em stoned as well and have a big chill :D :D :D

for me would be

SAS survival book
guitar
Phane - I want him only for his seeds :wink:

1) a 'genie in a bottle' with unlimited wishes for me.

2) the top 100 most beautiful women in the world ... woo hoo.

3) a 'cloaking device' to make the island invisible to the outside world ... preventing any possibility of rescue (and / or escape).

Oh pooooh ... just seen you can't take people ... that scuppers my plans !!

In that case ...

I would have to make sure I cover the basics ... a perpetual supply of food and water ... shelter ... another consideration would be how to create the means of escape ...

What kind of island are we talking about here ... something like on 'Castaway' !?

...and I dont even like apples :D

(and before anyone corrects me by saying nowhere in the Bible does it mention apple, it just says fruit, I was making a humorous comment :wink: )

PS Fig Leaves also bring me out in a rash! :D :roll: :D

Thanks spook, threads merged.

"Only 3 things with you - what would you take? "
What a great idea for aradio programme!;)

A solar powered sattelite phone or shortwave radio would have to be top of the list!

ah ya beat me to it :roll:

1. A solar powered MP3 player with a huge amount of tunage on it.
2. Sunglasses
3. Big knife with a sawish type side and a sharp side.

Three tasty young ladies.

That way I can create a whole community and society.

Firstly I would create a number of gods for us to worship and a temple to the god of music, Mr Bob Dylan. I would be tasked with the job of minister of state for reproduction. As our society grew we could find jobs for our comrades. I as divine emperor would control the laws and taxes and live a lavish life in my numerous palaces.

Twice a day my subjects would worship at my feet before I returned to the reproduction ministry.

We would develop a WMD programme and military arsenal to rival the western world. Then one night we would attack the rest of the world, in the morning it would be on it's knees, begging for Merci. I would then declare myself Master of the Universe, wiping out all religions and forcing people to place their prayer mats facing towards my island and worshiping me.

Then I could have all the lip balm, pens and paper I wanted.

I would then make myself the minister of reproduction for the entire world. A task only one as divine as I could carry out

In a generation or two everyone would be my descendants and statues of me would be erected across the face of the globe and on the moon


Hail dylan_61, Hail dylan_61, Hail

Hmm I would probably take ...

1. My Grandad's machete: Hey if he used it for survival I could too ;)

2. A picture of my friends and family: I could lounge in my desert island hut and dream about being with them.

3. Shark repellent: For when I'm spearfishing with my newly created spear that I would make out of wood!

Hmm. Maybe I should change the shark repellent for a beach ball. Every castaway should have a Wilson ...

begging for Merci.
Are these people french? Begging for thankyou?? lol :D

I would take a sturdy knife - you can build shelter, make spears to catch food, make clothes out of skins and gut fish and animals with it - very useful.

A thick pad of paper and my art supplies.

A guitar, or a radio.

1) Internet Connection / device to obtain connection (laptop/pc)
2) water
3) CD Wallets

Alex

1) A cannabis plantation

2) The 1000 most beautiful women in the world, including a hand full of wild cards, which will be down to my disgression

3) A never ending supply of the finest food and drink from around the world.

A big old knife

A big beach towel
