Desert island discs

[happy daze john in oz]

The ship was on fire and sinking fast, the entire crew bar the gay second steward and myself were either dead, missing or drowned. The second was attempting to release the last remaining lifeboat as I passed what served as the ships library.
I rushed inside, grabbed the solar powered CD player and a hand full of CD’s. I chucked them into the lifeboat and went back to the galleyto grab a 20-litre bucket of lard.

We eventually landed on a deserted small island somewhere in the South Pacific.

I looked at what I had grabbed from the library, ten CD in all, made up of the following in four different categories.

Classical
Beethoven’s fifth
Rhapsody in Blue by Gershwin

One opera, Turandot by Puccini

One movie score. West side story

Two country/Western
Sunday Morning Coming Down, Johnny Cash
You Were Always on my Mind, Willie Nelson

Four contempory.

Sailing, Rod Stewart
Hotel California , The Eagles
Silence is golden, Frankie Season and the Four Vallis
American Pie, Don MaClean

The lard was to put on my body in case the second steward fancied me; I would slip from his grasp.

Given similar situation what music etc in same categories would you take, and what useless article?

Well Marian if they took a tattooed lady both items solved in one!

[gray_marian]

Mmmm, Not much of a reader then Ivan!...Picture books only.

[Don Rafferty]

The arms of a barmaid from Yale
Were tattooed with the price of the ale
And on her behind
For the use of the blind
Was the same information, in Braille.

[gray_marian]
