View Full Version : If you were sent away to a deserted island for a year...
..what 3 luxury items would you take..?..
Water, Lighter or Matches and a thick book.
I suppose the most obvious things to say in these threads is phones, flares, a raft etc but I take it that's not what you meant? :laugh:

...LOL..well, I guess technically you could take a ship if you wanted to...but then what would be the point if you were sent for a year and that's how long you had to stay... (I don't know, I stole the question off another forum..)...
EDIT:..actually, I'll change it to luxury items...

A boat and a bottle of champagne and a glass to celebrate leaving the island.

do you really think the bottle of champagne would last the entire year without you being tempted to drink it? and wouldn't seeing the boat on your island for an entire year drive you mad? i have a boat, i can leave, but i can't,, because i have to be here an entire year. i think it would drive you mad.

Likely a fair few people would wish I was sent to a desert island for a year.
For me, Batteries,CDs and CD player would be enough for me. I'd likely even enjoy the peace and rest.

are we allowed to bring slaves? would a slave count as a thing? technically they are property...

...that is so not true, Joey..everyone loves Joeysteele...but music is a good choice and I think I have an idea of some of the CDs you would be taking...

I don't love joeysteele, and "CD's" is multiple things, it's cheating. each individual CD would count as 1 thing, saying "CD's" plural is like wishing for more wishes. going with an iPod filled with your entire collection, and also one of those solar iPod chargers would be a smarter option.

I have watched many hours of Bear Grylls Alex, living alone on an island for a year will be easy

Oh I could be very happy with one lot of CDs, a boxed set anyway,that would do nicely.

...hmmmm, I guess 'a cd collection' would be a singular thing though...

seriously though, let's be really real.
we'd all die within 2 weeks.
Nobody from this site would make it a year.

Your machine gun is useless without bullets Arista :wink:
A TV a DVD player and a copy of Rocky IV.
I would most likely survive, thrive and leave the island a better person.

I think a year would be possibly easy to survive,time flies really although I accept on a desert island that would seem probably different.
I think I would find the whole thing a great challenge, as long as I had some music that I really liked then I would be very happy but I would love the different environment, learning about and exploring the island too.
I love to be on my own a lot and I am sure I would be able to sustain myself with things to eat from what was around me.
It would be lonely obviously but I would be filling my head with all sorts of things to tell everyone once I was back, I think I would find this rather exciting to say the least.
A year away from everything and everyone,it almost sounds perfect.
