If someone was going to stick you in some dark scary cave for 6 months (i can't think why) and you could only take 6 things.....what would you take??

After you've included a six-month supply of food, I'd take:

my most excellent friend
scrabble
chess
a torch
and the internet.

the wife
milo & cosmo (they count as one)
chess is good. i could teach milo how to play in 6 months
hi-speed wireless satellite internet access on my 2ghz laptop is also good
an indoor cricket set
a disco ball

Of course, whether they'll still be your wife or friend after you condemn them to 6 months in a dark scary cave is another matter 8)

a dark scary cave? sounds a bit like our first house, and we survived that for a year, so no worries in a cave (especially one with a disco ball).

Cheers. The feeling is mutual.

If you weren't married with two kids, and I didn't have a sexy wee double-minded jerk to make my life complicated, it'd be love at first write.

Submitted by myshkin on Thu, 2003-02-13 16:47.

Why, thank you, its most unexpected.

Submitted by velocity on Thu, 2003-02-13 17:03.

Oh, but then I decide to trade the puppy on my list for a myshkin and ruin it all.

velocity's amended list:

1. a myshkin
2. a large box full of books
3. notebooks and felt tip pens
4. a toy for my myshkin
5. my book as far as I've written thus far (so that I can finish it --why else would I be in a cave for six months?)
6. music

Submitted by myshkin on Thu, 2003-02-13 17:07.

Oh well, if i was stuck in a cave with a Velocity, it might take me a while to figure out I was stuck in a cave, and then a while longer to realise there was only a Velocity and her four things and my toy, and by then the six months would be up, surely?

Submitted by velocity on Thu, 2003-02-13 17:13.

I'm not sure if this is a compliment.
