Desert Island Discs

Ah, a wind up radio, I have heard them getting those.Ok can I change please.

Who said it would be in my hands, chicken ? but I take your point. What about a solar powered electronic piano?

Time to say goodbye - Sarah Brightman (difficult to choose)

A big big book of English poetry

Nail clippers! My favourite fountain pen and paper

Thought who already had what? grannylyn65

Thought you already had

Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen---never get tired of it.

The Vizard Mask by Diana Norman---lovely long read, full of history and good yarns.

Endless supply of Argan oil.

I don't think Kirsty would allow a Swiss army knife. The luxury is supposed to be of no use for island survival.

On reflection, may I change my luxury to my Swiss Army knife? Much more use on a desert island than a fishing rod - with my record, anyway!

Runrig, Loch Lomond, the live version.

Perfume by Patrick Suskind

Photograph album with photos of the family and dear friends in it.

Bridge over troubled water
First album I ever bought

I have never read War and Peace
Will give it a go.

Insect repellent

If you wait long enough, they'll fall off the tree! Problem would be getting through the outer husk. Perhaps someone's luxury should be a machete!

Could we be castaways together, the music is wonderful so far and we could share our books. Can anyone climb a coconut tree?

Mr Tambourine Man
Riders by Jilly Cooper

Good Grief you are all so greedy I think MAYBE complete sets of books but not complete works are ok. NO to the Ipad, and most certainly NO to a man Friday. Kirsty would not allow all this lol and neither will I.
Shelter and fresh water is NOT a luxury, you have to build your own shelter, do none of you listen to this programme?

I shall throw my rattle from the pram in a minute if you don't all behave

Lady in Red Chris de Burgh

Complete series of Patricia Callwell,s Scarpetta books

Shelter and fresh water

Disc...The kinks, thank you for the days

Book...vote for,the complete Dickens

Luxery....solar powered iPad

I think it would have to be Mozart's Requiem for the record.

How to choose a book? I think perhaps the complete works of Terry Pratchett.

Paper and pencils would keep me happy for ages.

Brahms Hungarian Dances to remind me of daughters' ballet prowess. At one time my choice of book was Thomas Malory, but it occurred to me that a diet of the Mort d'Arthur, Shakaspeare and the King James Bible might make me unintelligible, or apparently insane, to an eventual rescuer. So I have settled for Proust.

Bach's Well Tempered Clavier;
Trollope's Barchester Chronicles;
A salt water fly fishing kit and a box of flies. If I didn't catch anything, and I managed not to starve, my casting would hopefully have improved no end by the time I was rescued!

Oops, forgot my luxury item. That would be my new-generation solar-powered iPad. (We get BT hotspots, sorted!)

One extra wish, that Man Friday be in the guise of Aiden Turner, PLEASE!!!

Your song - because it's our song.

Having been prompted by gn to start rereading Georgette Heyer, I'd like the complete works please.

Daily clean sheets - changed by Man Friday.

I misread the exclamation mark as an 'l' and was going to ask what a fish n chip rangel was

Disc....Miss You Nights by Cliff Richard.

Book.....the whole March family series by Louisa May Alcott.

Luxury.....A fish and chip range! (assuming that potatoes are growing on this island and fish can be caught)

Every Grain of Sand by Bob Dylan - love the lyrics

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland - always a favourite

Unlimited supply of ultra soft toilet rolls - many uses

Disc: Richard Strauss - Four Last Songs (all four, please)

Book: George Eliot - Middlemarch

Luxury: Unlimited supply of Jo Malone perfumes.
