Good one Abby, I thought of the Ipad but Telstra/Optus etc might not work there! Could have lots of games and books on it tho'

There is no power on this island,just shelter,food and water.

Waiting for Godot

War and Peace

Collected works of Shakespeare

It would be the only time I would be so bored that reading those tomes would seem a good idea .

This lot will see you to the end of eternity geomac!

No Power ? You are adding conditions to your initial posed problem.

Anyhow I've brought my own solar battery charger with the ipad.

With my ipad I should be able to get my location and work towards getting of it - no future in being stuck where you do not want to be.

Yes I should have added toilet paper as my third item.

Its a desert Island Abby,think "Gilligan"

Seggie. Book No.1 How to built a boat. Book No.2. Survival skills that must include how to make a fishing line. Book No.3. 'Weary'. Why? Because Sir Edward Dunlop was inspirational and I'd certainly need that. Can I take 2 pair of reading glasses too?

Of course,we all need reading glasses on this website,you have to think "Gilligan" then its easy!
