Richt Report post Posted August 5, 2006 5 Music Albums, 3 books (and as much trashy stuff as you like) 1 Luxury item. And I guess you can have the music loaded on an ipod with unlimited batteries. Music: Gong, Magick Invocations - because it's a double album and I get to cheat! (Anytime I feel out of it I can tune in and relax) Neil Young "rocking in a free world" Alice Cooper "Hey stoopid" and "The Last Temptation" - I got that one as a promo double pack (so I cheat again!) lol The Pogues, The Ultimate collection - ( What, not another double CD!!!!) Marillion, script for a Jester's Tear So musically, I can surf all the emotions I need stranded on my island, who needs people? Books, I might take the Bible, but doubt it, Number one for me would be an atlas of the world (excluding 500 square miles round my island) if the mods let me. Number 2 would be the complete works of Shakespeare because I'D HAVE ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD TO WORK OUT WHAT THE HELL ALL THE EXCITEMENT WAS ABOUT! Number 3 would be some documentary about people, so I could learn to understand them Luxury item - dead easy, a shelter with WiFi broadband through satellite Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sojourned Report post Posted August 6, 2006 (edited) Weird. I've also limited myself to taking 5 CDs and 3 books with me when I leave for Oz.. Anyway, this is what's in my list... CDs: The Best of the Moody Blues Marillion - The Essential Collection The Doobie Brothers - Divided Highway Epica - Consign to Oblivion I'm not sure on the 5th yet, it's a tie between ELO, Boston, Tristania and Elusive. Books: John Wyndham - The Chrysalids Robert Heinlein - Stranger in a Strange Land Robert Heinlein - Time Enough for Love Luxury item would be my incense (granule) burner.

Richt Report post Posted August 6, 2006 If you're struggling with number 5, I'd take the ELO, just to have mr blue sky with me, and a reminder that I'm a wild west hero. I've been thinking about the books a bit, Kafka? -no, dostyvesky? - can't even spell his name, probably Fly fishing by J.R. Hartley, it could come in useful - or how to brew beer by I.M. Hopper.

smiley Report post Posted August 9, 2006 Cheeky! Having considered all my options (and googled Ray.....) - i've decided against Ray (sorry Daisy ). Think i can live without the build shelter n catch food bit...... ........i'll settle for all my other requrements.. I'm reading a Jodi Picoult at the moment ...... suppose i could bring that along. Hmmmmmmm - whats the biggest book you can have?? War n Peace might take me a while to get through - probably bore me to tears though..... Right...... Music, music....... wow - that's a difficult one - five favourites....?? I'll have to think on that one.... ........ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
