You are marooned on a desert island

Personally, I am going to stay there until the world has turned back to the way I want it to be.

Trouble is, flossie the world has a nasty habit of catching up with you wherever you happen to be hiding!!

The Gransnet Army, arms folded legs akimbo with rolling pin ready will soon stop the world invading our island.

The rolling pin is, of course,to make a nice apple pie, for visitors.

Are we all there or each on our own island?

Apples?
Is that one of your three foodstuffs Flossieturner?
Because apples don't grow in the tropics

Who said the island had to be tropical, only deserted. Personally I would opt for a small deserted offshore island in a temperate climate where those that deserted it had left stone-built cottages I could set up home in. In which case bread cheese and water would be a distinct possibility. Is there any reason why the foodstuffs couldn't come in as regular airdrops?

As it so happens, you have been put on this Island as a reward for all the good things you have done in your life. Therefore it can be desert, deserted, tropical even the Isle of Grain if you wish.

The genie only wanted to know your three favourite food stuffs to get you started. She knew that you were all enterprising enough to magic up accommodation, grow fruit and herbs, rescue your piano, goats, harp, chickens big cooking pots, tuba and dinner companion. But that's a whole ' other thread..

So a desert island is a 'deserted island' not a sand cay with a palm tree then?
If it's tropical it will have a supply of water and lush vegetation and perhaps pineapples ...

well, if there were regular airdrops I may want to be rescued. I thought we were supposed to be cast away.

Yes, not a desert island and not marooned either! What's more, we can have anything we want...

Not much of a game, is it?

I am going to make my own musical instruments.

May I take a Swiss Army knife with me please?

A lovely claret wine

Norbury Blue

Mille Feuille

Thank you..when may I go?

Pentstemmon

and there was me being practical!

No stockists of Norbury Blue near me (just checked) so I will have to ask for Somerset Brie.

But it doesn't matter about stockists - the genie is supplying everything!

Oh, in that case.........

Oh no good me being practical.. I can organise and delegate with huge success but I am less anble to actually 'do' stuff!

I will still stick with Brie I think

Penstemmon I am not good at being delegated
