desert island discs....

[Geetar]

Well, I can always bring my 12 year old daughter's collection of pop music. Or another couple of hundred jazz albums.

I'll bring the big powered monitors, a decent D/A converter and a couple of Mac servers for the iTunes jockeys.

But I'll be badgered if I'm pedalling the bicycle to power it all. I nominate rogerg for that job. I'm  doing the fishing, and I'll need help to carry all the beer; it's to keep me going, you understand. Can't fish without beer.

And you vinyl junkies can bring your own sodding turntable.

Well, if someone can build me a bread oven then we can have Marmite on toast! TA, I think I'll nominate you for the daytime job of domesticating /tending the local wildlife (the stars only come out when it's dark, right?) so that we have a source of milk and eggs - and if someone can make cheese and grow tomatoes then we can have pizza every day!

Eeek - not so sure I should be trusted with the wildlife. I very nearly totalled a very cute looking fox cub last night when driving home after midnight  :shock:

I'd already seen one (a cub) that had been sadly hit a few miles earlier    and was thinking that I never wanted to have that on my conscience, when rounding a corner I suddenly came upon another one who wasn't quite sure which way to run. Slammed on the brakes and missed him by a whisker, literally.

Then again, there are no cars on our island, right? The geckos will be safe, even if I'm not sure they make enough milk for mozzarella

No need to carry. I can brew the beer. Being an ex-brewer.  

The music is looking pretty good so far. Just add some:

Jack Johnson & Donovan Frankenreiter for that cool island vibe.

And

Cream: Strange Brew... to, well, brew to.  

[Geetar]

At last- someone with a decent skill set.

BBS, you're a star.

[catherine]

I can do wine and mead as well...

[Geetar]

Well, between you both, I think we have most of we need. But one vital thing remains, as catherine has pointed out- is there someone who can make cheese (both Western style and paneer) among us?

[Pedro]

Jem shot the cow....

[Mouse]

Aye, but will he kind and give it to us? He may become sadistic and make us fight for it. (Starts sharpening rocks behind back)  :twisted:

I can have a go at making cheese, but I can't be held responsible for what abomination against nature would be created from the experiments...  :shock:

[rogerg]

hmm, I have to pedal the bicycle?

[Geetar]

Yes, but look on the bright side- nobody needs power much after 2am; so you'll get at least five hours of sleep between shifts.

[rogerg]

oh, I feel much better now....

[Nellie]

Far too many boys on this island! Catherine will spend her whole time clearing up.
No particular albums but anything by:
Ian Dury
Fun Loving Criminals
Santana
ELO
Scissor Sisters (for dancing) :lol:

[D S]

Blessed are the cheese-makers!  

[Geetar]

Well, Nellie, there may be too any of us blokes, but at least there'll be replacements for rogerg when he keels over from ten or eleven weeks pedalling the generator bicycle.
