      yay! fun question.

      right, first i’d like to assume that i could find food and drinking water easily on the island and there would be no need for special defences against scary animals. then, my three things would be:

      1. Satellite phone with solar-powered battery – so i could call for rescue when I’d had enough. ; )
      2. Factor 50 sunscreen – I have a Celtic complexion and burn in seconds. It’s not worth it.
      3. The Twilight books – see point 1. I wouldn’t actually want to stay on my very own more than a week or two, and I’ve been meaning to read these for a while. These would fill the time nicely while I’m not applying sunscreen or swimming.

      From that Tom Hanks film, I now know the correct answer is: a dentist, an unopened FedEx package, and a volleyball named Wilson.

      For me, though, I’d take: a big bag of Cadbury mini-eggs, masseuse, and surf-board.

      My family, a good book (or possibly a Ninetendo DS) to pass the time and helicopter to get me back again.
