Found some...er... (maybe) useful survival tips on the web this morning - but am left wondering how many people cast away on a desert island and needing to build a fire, would have a brillo pad, toilet roll and 9v battery handy?! (See link below...)
And to ensure continued survival, after being rescued from the island and safely home again:-
Quote: "(Useful) technique to -
test the safety of your microwave oven.
Place your (mobile) phone inside the oven, close the door and then dial your mobile number from your land line.
Your call should go straight to voicemail because the microwaves can't reach the phone. If it rings you have a problem, because if the waves can get in, they can get out, too (!!)"
(Ref: Mail Online).
Another tip on how to combat B.O. (plain old sweat!) with fizzy 'love heart' sweets, is intriguing - if perhaps not a bit sticky(?).. I.E: Crush them up and apply directly to armpits..(!)
Of course, you won't be able to lift your arms whilst 'holding' the sweeties in place - but at least you'll smell nice!
These tips and more @

In my Spanish class last week we had to choose 8 things from a big list that we would like to be cast away with..... love hearts weren't there on the list so I guess we would smell rally bad whilst making a fire and building a raft!
Kate ~ Very whiffy! But still, you could at least bathe in the sea..? (Plenty of sponges, foam and Tide available in there)! Ole!
