Desert Island Discs - sort of

[McElmurry]

Lol well I guess she is Scottish, I guess it should be said that it should be an inanimate object. Your most treasured Scottish possession. Although some might say that after seeing her acting that she qualifies as an inanimate object. Not me though shes gorgeous.

Well I suspected my choice was not going to fly and Sharon Small is a lot closer to my age anyway.

So for my second choice on a desert island I’ll take this lovely water tower from the Isle of Lewis.

My Ross Hunting Modern hand-made 13-oz beautiful wool kilt.

I'd take along my MacGyver episode guide. Between the covers I could surely find a means of escaping that horrible island and getting back to my wife and kid.

A makeshift speedboat, perhaps...fashioned from my granite-like toenails and greasy hair, bound together with bodily juices and powered by the excessive methane found in my guts.

Yeah, I'm disgusting. But at least I won't be stranded like you poor gentlemen.

Err.. Which of the above is your " one Scottish item" ? could it possibly be your granite-like toenails from the granite city perhaps?

Eeew. No, it's the Scottish ingenuity (and frugality) that is evident throughout history--manifest in the 1980's-90's U.S. television hero Angus MacGyver:



If you're not familiar with the great man, he's famous for combining basic, ubiquitous materials and simple scientific principles to save the world or make miraculous escapes. I'd take the episode guide, which details all of these, and simply look through the index until I had enough information to build my boat.

Take a look at this:

Now tell me I'm not getting back to my family:

A jet ski designed as a coffin. Just what will they think of next? Better leave the copy on the island when you escape. Think I might need it.

Would a case of Auchentoshan Three Woods Malt count as one item

Of course I will! If you're generous enough to allow it past your strict standards, the least I can do is make its wisdom available to you.

as long as its one case. although Three woods is more than one wood so may have you on a technicaility there.

Strict standards? you have obviously never seen me dance !!!!!!!!
