We'll have to hope that the Chinese takeaway has plenty of veggies - or maybe we can invent something with Peaches.
Anyone tried Peach chips? Wink

What exactly is a lifetime's supply? A bottle of perfume every week and I could set up my own online shop, a pint of milk a week and I'd be desperate in three days  Tongue

You know those sci-fi disaster movies where a group of people are suddenly isolated from civilisation (as they know it) and have to survive on whatever they have to hand.
Here's the twist in the tale - we are that group and we have to survive on the last items we bought!!

Seeds
Chinese Takeaway
Almond Magnums
Concrete
Coffee
Corn plasters
Coach screws
Tray of peaches
Sour cream and chive crisps
TV Magazine
Box of Red wine
Opium perfume
Dry vermouth

Could you get by with those items for a lifetime? Smile

PS Nobody said I was sane!!

A lot depends on the selection of seeds, also how quick we could get our clothes off, and before you start building your hopes up, it's to use the clothes as a filter to remove the water from the left over concrete after making 2 small holding ponds, one for the filtered water another for holding the water that we would have stored inside ourselvesRolleyes 13 folk so someone is sure to be able to make some dishes out of the TV mag, so that the magnums and the takeaway could be shared out, of course Veggie being the oldest we would all be looking to her for guidance, so what would you suggest Big Grin

I thought the TV magazines would be useful for starting fires and in the dunny. Big Grin

No one has specified where we are isolated. I elect an island. We can use the TV mags to boil sea water to distill it for potable water, coffee and growing seeds. I don't fancy a diet of crisps and magnums though

To be honest being stuck with you lot on a desert island is more worrying Wink

I’m hoping peach chips taste better than the kale crisps I made the other day.
