Being relatively new to these forums, I'm not sure whether this has been done before or not. Apologies if it has and if so, I'll expect this thread to disappear off the radar very swiftly. If not, let's go for it.

You are to live alone on a Desert Island for a year. Your one treat is a top of the range Walkman with your choice of headphones, a year's supply of batteries and ten CDs of your choice to keep you company. A double CD will count as 2 and a triple as 3 - and so on.

What would be your ten CDs?

PS I'm working on this week's choice and will post later...of course, it will be a different 10 by this time next week!
