Shipwrecked ........ (30)
No-one fancies being ship-wrecked on a tropical island?
Well, I do.
And what I`ll take with me is ...... a mirror, a tweezer, and a bag of seeds.
Well, I do.

I'd be a hopeless companion, most of what I came up with requires electricity!
So Smoky, explain your choice.
Hope I won't step on a Sea-Egg while wading a-shore!
Or I might have to borrow some Tweezers!
Gonna be some hard work floating that Fifty Kilowatt Powerplant ashore!

Hhaahaha ... Janie ...... you need electricity? I`m guessing you want to take your hairdryer ....? ... Mobile phone ... laptop....? Electric blanket? Kenwood ....? Hi-Fi..?
For me, Mirror, can use it for signalling for help (if needed), check out my appearance, start a fire, blind any beasties, etc.
Tweezer? To pull out splinters, unwanted hair (enough free time to while away doing my legs!) maybe use it to disect any edible creatures after cooking.
I`ve forgotten what my third choice was. Oh yes, seeds! A bag of mixed seeds. Vegetables, fruits, and Marijuana seeds. (The hash to feed to what is about to be slaughtered - plus its a healthy plant to encourage growth in other plants - well that`s my reason and I`m sticking to it)
I thought this was going to be a thread about duck tours on the Mersey?
If I were to be shipwrecked on a tropical island, there's only one thing I'd need to be perfectly content: a 3 masted schooner.

There is water on the island. Tropical climate.
And you have to carry what you bring .... you will be dropped off and have to wade to shore.
