OK, back to the week before that woman from Ireland won the Euro roll over!

Back to 1999 when i screwed my life up by leaving uni, and started to get into debt etc...

and do it all again properly this time

I think I would like to go to April 14th 1912 West Atlantic aboard the SS Californian,
I could stay in the radio room and tell Titanics Captain Smith to offload the Passengers
and Crew onto the iceberg prior to our arrival.
I don't want to be on the Titanic in case he won't listen
and I want to take the FT's for 1912 to 1920.

I want to go back in time until just before I was conceived so my parents could see what their actions would inflict upon the world and ask them, for the good of humanity, if they'd like to reconsider

I'd go back to world superbikes, 1999 at brands hatch. I'd give carl fogarty a good tyre, and I'd give chris walker a factor kawasaki in place of the BSB one he rode then.

And sit back and enjoy that noise again from the crowd as foggy got the holeshot into paddock, followed by The Stalker....

Ooooo i get tingles down my spin thinking about it

I'd go forwards 2 hours and go home.....

With the possibilities time travel could offer … I am surprised how many people are mostly interested in going back and really only for financial gain …

To me the past has already happened … ok so back when there were dinosaurs we about is kinda pieced together from fossils/artefacts, but its still all already happened, we know about it. So I’d go into the future … the hard thing is how far …

Problem being if I went 5,000 years, the world could essentially be over … but if I only went 50years, then I doubt enough has changed to make it worthwhile …

Sooooo … on the proviso that if the world had ended that I could get to choose another time … I’d go a million years into the future, how fascinating would that be!!!! And what an opportunity for them to literally have a living fossil

I disagree it would be better to go back and change something.
if you go forward you don't know what's going to happen so can't change it.
As for being a living fossil - you'd either not be believed (and get locked up in a loony bin) or they'd have invented time travel and you'd be no one special.

If you went forward a million years they'd believe you, people would look different. Following current trends they'd all be 8ft tall, 90 Stone and never move

Yep, if I went back to the trenches, would make damn sure that I made it known
that a young German corporal with a silly moustache going by the name of Adolf Hitler was found
and killed at all costs!
