not wishing to sound pedantic or too geeky... but isnt it a question of it producing enough watts not ohms?

" Ohmms are watts volts push ohmms through resistance"

ohms are the unit for resistance, amps the unit for current, volts are well the unit for voltage and watts are the unit for power and it is power not resistance that will determine what can be run off a generator

thats what vodka on a friday night does for you, somehow was thinking of ohmms law I equals V divided by R or transposed to R equals V divided by R or V equals I times R

At last somebody put Road House, I was wondering how long it would be

I'd probably choose

Road House

Shawshank Redemption

Uncle Buck or Planes, Trains & Automobiles (either would be fine)

Yes,we weaned the lads of Disney crap with his films(i am not even going to attempt to spell his name

)They are so good that a 7 and 11 year old love a film about a little girl who wins by being nice and polite,not a gun or a fight scene !i also love Princess Monomoko,but it was odd having to explain what a brothel was

The Forest

As it's a dessert island I'd be too busy tucking into lemon meringue mountain, and choccofudge cove.

If it was a desert island I'd take:-

1. How to survive on a desert island.

2. How to get the hell off a desert island.

3. Dr Zhivago
