TREASURE CHEST - Mayor of Coleraine David Barbour
THIS week we asked the newly appointed Mayor of Coleraine, DAVID BARBOUR to tell us what he would he would pack into his Treasure Chest to take to a desert island.
Here's what the former NI Ambulance Service worker and Ulster Unionist councillor would take with him:
1. Fishing Rod
For huting in the sea and in the rivers for food.
2.Hunting knife
I guess this would be essential for hunting for food on the land, it might also come in useful for defence and as a cutting tool.
3. Tent
For shelter
4. Blankets
I need warmth at night, it might be cold on the island.
5. Fire Lighters/matches
Essential for heat and of course for cooking
6. Saucepan
For cooking all the lovely food I would catch from hunting.
7. First Aid Kit
Just in case I injured myself.
8. A Bible
For spiritual sustenance
9. Satellite Radio
I'd need long life batteries in it, it'll help me keep in contact with what's going on else where in the world.
10. Satellite mobile phone with long life batteries
I could try and keep in touch with friends and family, but it'd come in useful as a positioning signal for rescue services when required
