I've been tagged - you've been tagged

I've been tagged by the lovely Anne to answer some questions, you'll find a link to her blog below.  She has chosen the theme Desert Island Delights.  Ok so here goes...

Imagine  you are marooned on a dessert island 

1) What three people alive or dead (not family) would you
 choose to keep you company? 

Good question, it's hard to choose, there's a number of people I would like to keep me company.  Now should I go for someone who'd make me laugh, a bit of eye candy or someone intelligent to keep up some stimulating conversation? Doh! Hubby just pointed out I can choose three people!  I do read things properly honestly.  So I could choose one from each category, intelligence, eye candy and funny, yay! First choice would be Ray Mears for his survival skills and he would also be interesting to talk to.  Next person would be Si King, one of the Hairy Bikers, he's funny, interesting and could cook me great dinners, and although not your typical eye candy I do have a strange crush on him! My third choice would be either Stephen Fry or Brian Blessed???? Hmmmmm, which one?????? Stephen Fry is a popular choice in these types of questions and I feel would be a great choice, but Brian Blessed wins for me, he must have stories galore from working as an undertakers apprentice when he was 15 years old to climbing Everest and you know there would never be a dull moment!  (You may notice I've picked, how shall I put this, beefy fella's so if the food runs short.........)

2) What three pieces of equipment would you take from the sunken ship. (non electrical)


I'm going down the practical route of a survival situation. So I'd choose an axe or large cutting implement, a large container for fresh water and and a large waterproof sheet (hope Ray Mears would be proud of my choices.  If I went down the luxury route it would have to be pillow, duvet and coffee machine (solar powered of course).

3) What three books would you take for reading.

Oooh hard one, so many wonderful books to choose from!

Hounded the first in the Iron Druid Chronicles by Kevin Hearne (fantastic series, love them so much!!!!)

Hubble Bubble by Christina Jones ( again love, love, love her books, fantastic author)

The last one I think I may go for one of the Harry Potter's, thinking the first one although may be I'd go for the Half Blood Prince.


Everyone knows Harry Potter but I highly recommend Kevin Hearne and Christina Jones to people, two of my favourite authors!

4)What three ingredients for cooking would you save.

Paprika, chinese five spice and garlic salt. You could almost certainly make anything tasty with these ingredients.

5)What three animals would you have on the Island.


Not sure if this is one of each animal or types of animals but I'm opting for the latter.  I'd go for ducks, pigs and goats. Eggs, bacon, milk and cheese oh and could have goat curry too!

6) What three pieces of music would you like to hear during your stay.
 
Another hard one. I'd go for Queen Don't stop me now.  Love this song, it just brings a smile to may face and makes me want to dance and be happy.  It was the first song we heard as a married couple.  We had it played as we walked out of the ceremony.  Oooh struggling here, not sure about the others.  I'll go for something of Michael Buble but can't decide which one and lastly I'll go for the Kings of Leon 'Your sex is on fire'. 

7)If your Island could be an imaginary place from a book or film where would it be
?  


It would be the Midlands, a place from Terry Goodkinds novels The Sword of Truth series because they have wayward pines which are massive trees that are an instant shelter. 

That was fun! Great questions, thanks Anne, really enjoyed them.  Ok so my turn to ask the questions.
