I'd like to go back and meet my ancestors, so I could sort out my family tree.

I'd also like to visit London pre 1666 to see what it was like,and again in the 18th Century.

Cheers

sad story mate, kinda makes (almost) everyone elses posts irrelavent, esp one reply in particular, you'll be together one day.

It sure is. The same gas was responsible for the cooling between 1941 - 1975, which is the same gas responsible for the warming since 1975. And yet the decadel trend since 1998 is flat.

You know it's a scam when polticians get involved.

I asked exactly the sme question to my other half yesterday, and hadn't seen this thread.
Where to start .....

There are so many instances where wrongs ould be put right, lets start bang up to date with the Maddie situation, I know there are jokes going around, but for the little girl, who didn't have a choice in the matter, it's not funny, there are loads of murderss/shooting/accidents etc. but unfortunately, if you do intervene, you would alter history, which may not be a good thing ...... But then it may have been good, especially if one of those that died, were to be a scientist that discovered a cure for Cancer/aids etc ...... The mind could boggle thinking about it.

If, for my own pleasure, I was to go back, I would love to go back to the late 60's early 70's , as I feel that would have been a great time in our country's history.

I'd go back to see earth at different stages of it's development. See it before life came onto the land, see the age of huge fish, see the dinosaurs, see all the odd animals that evolved straight after the dinosaurs got snuffed.

For human history, I'd like to see the Pyramids being built, how exactly did they manage it? Stonehenge too.

I'd like to see a gladiator at the Collisseum, a Roman orgy (take part!), the battle of Hastings, Henry VIII, the list is endless.

Future? Yup, I would just keep skipping forward a hundred years or so, see what happens to us.

And of course, I would use the oppurtunity to make shed loads of money

you would have a massive choice of beer that all tastes the same because it is all brewed from the same 4 ingredients no matter what you get !

However it would be cheap so you could fill England up with an even greater choice of cheap lager
