Sympathy for the Devil - Rolling Stones

Luxury item: I considered scuba gear but in the end opted for my computer. That way I could have my entire music collection rather than be limited to 8 tracks and I could also sell off The Complete Works of Shakespeare on ebay and replace it with something better. Having a computer would also enable me to fire off angry e-mails to Radio 4 producers about how pretentious they are in including the complete works of some obsolete 16th Century version of Barbara Cartland, rather than something worthwhile.

I suppose reading through this thread would be a good idea as I'm going to be spending a week on a desert Island doing **** all at the expense of the British Taxpayer. I'll send you a postcard if you want.

Much Love.
