DESERT ISLAND DISCS, COMICS, And BOOKS...


Occasionally, I find myself listening to Radio Four's Desert Island Discs, and I always wonder whether the guests feel frustrated at being permitted to choose only 8 records.  I don't think I'd be able to limit myself to a mere 8, so what I'm about to ask of you is perhaps a bit cheeky.  However, let's make it 10, and let's also include comics and books as well as single records.  That's 10 of each by the way, so 30 items in all.  (I'll maybe do LP albums another time, but for the moment it's singles.)

So, Crivvies, were you to be told you were going to be exiled on a desert island (no, I don't mean Millport), what 10 records would you choose to take with you, and the same goes for which 10 comics and which 10 books you'd pick for your time on the island?  Don't worry, there's a solar powered record player waiting there for you.  Oh, wait, there's another aspect, isn't there.  If you could only have one item from each 10, which one would it be?  (That's even tougher to decide, eh?)  Give it a think and then let loose in the comments section.
