Is it just the people who have gone? Would there still be sheep? If there were sheep left to look after, and a horse, and dog I'd be OK I reckon.
Knock up some mint sauce and it doesn't seem so bad.

Load up a big comfy 4x4 with water, some food and lots of porn. Head to the Channel Tunnel and cross into mainland Europe. Relocate to southern Italy, load up with more food, beer and wine and slowly descend into a sun-soaked wine-and-beer inebriated porn-fest... probably. And go mental within a few weeks, eventually dying of either alcohol poisoning or sheer self-abuse.

Rather worryingly it's just dawned on me there would be no TV any more, I'm bothered by how much that scared me
Reminds me of a book I read called Island in the Sea of Time."the island of Nantucket in Massachusetts which was transported back in time to 1250 BC"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nantucket_series
Due to no internet lots of people topping themselves, couldn't cope being disconnected.
Find and figure out how to operate the satellites in space and point the camera at a country of my choosing.
Find and figure out how to launch a nuclear missile.
Point all of them at the country that had already been chosen previously.
Launch, then sit back and watch them on the satellite feed.
I imagine the excitement would be on par with striking a single match then using that match to sit fire the rest of the box in one go.
Frivolous, pointless but f*cking brilliant.

For those planning to tour Europe, how are you going to get there?
Ever heard of a thing called the channel tunnel?... how would you get a car through the Chunnel? I believe you could drive through the service tunnel but it has some pretty serious steel doors that probably failed "closed".
Let's face it, with all the time in the world you could easily get through
Trains won't have any power, so you can't drive one.
Moped-ing through the railway tunnels might be possible but I'm sure I've seen raised sleepers or something in the tunnel before - either way I'd want to take a car - something big enough to carry the supplies I'd need.
The LandRover rail car looks good. Just have to hope a EuroTunnel train didn't crawl to a halt in the tunnel.

You could also drive as far as you can then walk the rest.
You could open the big doors, they must be able to be opened and closed. You have all the time in the world and if you're clever you might find some TH3 that will open most things.
Or dover calais is only 20 miles by sea, pick a nice day and you could do it in a bathtub. Personally I would do it in this, http://www.clarkeandcarter.co.uk/boats-for-sale/20... its in dover and oh look its free!

Why would you need supplies? Its 31 miles you can last 31 miles with stuff in a carrier bag, France would be full of supplies.

If you were the last person on earth - no-one else to support you - you'd want to hold onto any supplies you had until you found something better. You can't afford to risk anything. No second chances.You could also drive as far as you can then walk the rest.

The doors are in a tunnel under the sea. I imagine TH3 is an explosive. I'm not sure how a tunnel under the sea would react to that. I wouldn't want to either be there when it went off or risk ruining my way off this island.

Actually that's a door leading into the service tunnel from the main tunnels.
The doors in the service tunnel themselves are show (open) here:
Surely that gigantic round wheel on the left of the picture is a manual opener so if there is no power you can still get the doors open (really slowly).Actually that's a door leading into the service tunnel from the main tunnels.

So just use the Spanish override on the left, they are watertight blast doors not security doors. Actually that's a door leading into the service tunnel from the main tunnels.

TH3 is Thermate not to be confused with thermite, uesd to burn through metal, not an explosive as such. But Im sure enough liner cutting explosives or enough thermal lances would also do the job. If you didnt want to bother turning the wheel.
