I also think that you should not be limited to one period of the past or future. You are able to do something like the following:


Go watch the 1966 World Cup Final, then pop off for dinner with King Arthur, go to the Sydney Olympics, eat a Brontosaurus steak, come back to today and tell your mates about what you have seen and then go to Woodstock.

1) I'd like to have gone back to two days ago when I would have dialled 999 when I suspected the English sounding voice coming from my upstairs neighbours were not my neighbours who are actually Eastern Europeans. I would also have waited for him, the burglar there at the time, to come out. Then the police would have possibly caught him.

2) I'd like to go forward to get the lottery numbers but hey - that's silly. Then given heaps of money to my neighbours who had everything taken.

3) I'd like to go back and done something to prevent Tony Blair getting in power despite the joy in 1997 when he did so. Everything's gone wrong with spin and target league table culture. So may have had to have done something there.

4) I'd see myself a year before I die. If I am ill, I'll know to kill myself to prevent the year's agony for those who love me. If I am not ill I will suspect I should possibly die all of a sudden, so I shall carry on trying to enjoy life.


Of course, today may BE a year before I die. Heyyy, who started this topic.


I'll get me coat...

So it coudl be argued that he's not actually your dad anyway, as you killed him you would not be here to go back... Time to raise some awkward questions with your mum then....sorry! :-)

I'd like to go back to the early 1960s to see people like the Rolling Stones, the Who, the Yardbirds and the Small Faces at the places like the Crawdaddy Club and Eel Pie Island and the Marquee Club.

Although I was around at that time I was only a nipper and obviously far too young to go to such places but seeing those bands up close in a hot sweaty club must have been amazing.

I think I'd like to go 20 years into the future and swot up on everything that had happened in those 20 years. Then I'd go back to present day and start spouting prophesies so i would be worshipped and could take over the world. Nyaahahahaa (evil laugh).

Ok just to negate any confusion over suppressed aggression towards my parents or my possible parentage I would leave my poor old dad alone and go backwards a few days and kill myself. Just to see how the old space-time continuum would handle it.


If the entire universe ceases to have ever existed and god packs his bags for warmer climes well? sorry but at least I can say it was my fault. If indeed I had ever existed to cause anything to be blamed for and if cause and effect (which are critically realisable on time) still existed (of course concepts like ?still? and ?existed? would mean nothing as would ?meaning?)


Although I suspect it isn?t all so simple.

    • Why is the name a big of a red flag? Blighty is a common name for the UK whatever people might think.
    • The only election which counts is the General Election.  There is still strong resentment for fourteen year's of Conservative rule. They squeezed the working class's way to hard, then they squeezed the middle class, but somehow the upper class never got touched, funny that.   There is also new resentment for Labour because of the utter balls up they've made of things since coming to power nine months ago. The majority of the population (or at least those with an ounce of common sense) want these clowns out of office ASAP because they see the damage they are doing to UK plc. They squeezed the pensioners, then the farmers and then business. They made and broke promise after promise, or just didn't tell the truth or say what they where going to do, otherwise known as merely lying to get elected. Inflation may be falling but the cost of things in the shops and utility bills keep on rising, the direct opposite of what they promised. They will never be trusted once they are ousted from power in about four and a half years time.   Everything they do and touch causes further harm, led by three stooges, Rayner, Reeves and balls'less Starmer, who couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag. He still thinks he's a solicitor at the DPP. Rather than spending week upon week getting involved in international politics he needs to be sorting out the UK's issues, sadly he's not up to the job and nor are his Cabinet.  Society needs a mix of people with different skills to prosper, not more and more graduates who can't get jobs in what they studied in.   Reform is the current anti establishment party, which will hopefully wither away back to where it came from.  The Liberals and Greens, well what can you say apart from using them as another alternative vote of dissatisfaction, but neither will come to power.  The country seriously needs stability and a Government that stands up for and represents it's people, not what MP's want but what the constituencies want and need.  Government needs to become far more open and transparent, it needs to be seen to be doing its job, doing what MP's are elected to do,  working for the people in the constituencies, getting back to basic principles and rebuilding the trust which has been lost by successive party's immaterial of them being, red, blue, light blue, yellow, green or some other colour.     
    • That’s very insulting! You are basically calling 17 million people that voted to leave the EU ‘thick’.        Brexit happened Sue.  Boring graphs!  Calling Nigel Farage a plastic patriot is also very insulting seeing as he and the Reform Party have had a landslide victory all over England.
    • These charity collectors are often classed as chuggers.  It can be scandalous that the charity/admin may keep a huge percentage of your donations and a tiny percentage is  actually given to the charity.   I can not speak for individual collectors - but it common practice.
