An island of beautiful women sounds great but how are you to escape when they ask you to put up a shelf or decorate a palm tree or some such?

'Island of beautiful women complete with yacht marina and hi-powered speedboat' would be more practical.

Paradise for me would be a world where gamers were classed as having an addiction and therefore mentally ill. I could then claim Sickness Benefit and not have to work, because the State would fund my addiction with regular top-ups of new games to feed my addiction. Later they may try to get around this by substituting morphine, but I'd get this overruled in the European Court of Human Rights and force the Government to supply the real McCoy.

I could claim extra equipment to help with my disability, like a new pod (leather Recaro AM-19 sports seat fitted with brackets to support an F1 Steering Wheel), a new widescreen TV or possibly a wall-mounted plasma screen, a decent surround sound system, a mini fridge etc.

Of course in my paradise the working public would have no hesitation in paying an extra 5 pence in the pound income tax to subsidise us poor addicted gamers, because in my paradise gamers are treated as the uber social class, the top eschelon of society, no longer regarded as pale-faced geeks who never venture further than 15ft from their console.

Meals on Wheels would have to deliver of course, and I'd nominate Lisa Faulkner as my dinner lady. Because I'm classed as mentally ill by the government, she'd have to take sensible precautions when entering my gaming area, like wearing a bikini and...well, I could go on but I'd go off topic a little and get banned.

I'm off down the DSS now to try this out. If someone could post the address for the European Court of Human Rights in the meantime I'd be grateful.
