This is the second monthly poll I'm running, this time more specific than a simple preference question. The three base options are tools, food, and games, though there are combination options like last time.
Have fun!

Tools, food, clothing, a tent, sleeping bag, solar panels to power various items and a lot of books. I'd also bring an MP3 player with various talking books and records including The Police "Message in a Bottle"

I'd bring food, a laptop and my prized helmet along with medical supplies that I'll need. I want it to feel as much like home as possible.

That's funny, I just saw a video like this yesterday:

I'd also bring a sign saying "Get off my lawn!"

You’ll need a couple of pink flamingos to go with that.

I've been playing the game "Fallout 4" which is set in America and I noticed lots of pink flamingo's stuck in people's lawns and wondered what that is all about. Maybe the English equivalent are garden gnomes?

A bag of holding filled with dope... so I can communicate with smoke signals or something.

The gnomes look better.The flamingos are now sort of a joke ,I think they were popular back in the fifties.

It’s growing all over my island now.
Looks like a volcano smoking when I fire one up.
