To pass sometime and a bit of fun before our next match.
Scenario
You are sent to a deserted island as part of experiment and you will be left on the island for 5 years with no communication with the outside world.
The island has a supply of fresh water coming down from a mountain range and enough natural food resources to last a lifetime. Also along the shore line is plenty of drift wood and rubbish of various types to enable you to build some form of shelter.
The island enjoys 6 months of summer weather but the winters are harsh.
A week before you leave you are told you can take the following to help you get through the 5 years, so what would you take and why.
1. One Companion 2. One luxury Item 3. One set of complete works by a Author 4. Any item from a DIY store 5. One toiletries item 6. one item of clothing
