By yourself for 5 years. The island is full of wildlife, edible fruits and materials to build a shelter/shack. 

On arrival you are handed a shopping list which you can purchase items for the duration of your stay, now clearly this is a fantasy situation so if you choose a TV electricity would be provided, a fridge for your alcohol etc.

8d - Mac with full internet access

6d - Unlimited supply of alcohol

5d - TV with access to BBC 1 & 2, ITV, C4 C5 only

5d - Unlimited music

5d - One take away delivery per month (Pizza, Indian, Chinese)

5d - Unlimited supply of chocolate

4d - A dog or cat with unlimited non human consumption food 

4d - Full library of books

4d - King size bed & bedding

3d - 1 Hour weekly call to a friend/family

Hang on - checking for a friend.

Choose a TV and you get the electricity, choose the alcohol and you get the fridge

If I...I mean my friend...chooses the full internet access do he get unlimited boxes of kleenex?

Books, Music and Fishing Rod.  Assuming none of the wildlife think I'm edible, if they do better give me the rifle and ammo instead of the fishing rod. 

Any potatoes on this island? Can't see myself living without chips or roast potatoes for any significant period of time.

Does the island have potable water?

Fresh water streams run through the island, can't tell you where though you will need to find them yourself.

Is it hot or cold there?

Hot during the day, chilly at night.

Can't answer without knowing the basics.

Hope that helps

Alcohol, forum access, rifle and fishing gear.

I'd make the alcohol Strongbow Dark Fruits, and would spend my days exhausting the worldwide supplies pouring it into the sea, while posting videos on the forum in a bid to force @BurtonRam7 into drinking a more manly drink.

I'd use the empty cans to build a luxury villa, and make cutlery, and a boat for fishing trips, but mostly to create a fortification where I'd keep an eye out for a certain invader on a pedelo, trusty rifle at the ready.

I am considering trying to get into whisky, if that makes any difference. The only issue is everything that I’ve tried so far is absolutely ducking horrible.

That's like going from tippex thinners to crack.

Try Glayva or Drambuie (sic), bit more mellow as a gateway. 

Although I love both them, but still can't get into whisky really.

Especially not Jack Daniels.
