Default Question for you. Let's pretend ...

So you've moved to a new property. You've got hot & cold water, power, & a basic cooker. You're allowed two other 'gadgets'. What would you choose?

Well, because I am disabled and cannot walk very far one would be my electric power chair. Unless I would not be considered one of the gadgets. If that is the case, I would want a multipurpose electric drill and an electric saw. The reason being, with these two items along with hand tools I would be able to make whatever else I needed.

Well I guess if I have power, something to cook on and water I would have to go with a computer and maybe a lamp of some kind.

My computer and a phone line so I can continue to work. That's what I'd want.

I never even thought about a phone line. I was trying last night to think of other things and I still would have to say I need my computer.

Holy cow, we didn't even have all that when we moved onto our property! And we still don't have water....

I honestly can't think of what else I'd want, I'll keep thinking....I wouldn't even care to have a phone....


is a gun a gadget?

You know, I wasn't thinking about my computer for a change. But, now that I think of it, if the Internet is still intact, I would have to change that electric saw to a computer. If I didn't have Internet at least I would have something to keep me occupied when I was done building things.

My computer obviously, and it would have all the necessary wireless internet etc built in.. and a fridge to keep my drinks cold...

So I got food, drink, water for washing, and entertainment.. (my pc has dvd and music as well as games) sorted.

won't needa heater, I can snuggle up to hubby to keep warm

I'm not scared. But I'm still none the wiser as to which gadgets you'd choose ...... ;-)
