Any place any time in history or future?

[bathursttiger1]

If you could be anywhere and anytime in history where would you choose to be at a particular event.

For myself it would be the 22nd of November 1963,
The sixth floor Texas School Book Depository building Dealy Plaza Dallas.

Just something that stuck in my mind, as an 8 year old bringing the Daily Mirror home for my father and reading the headlines (JFK Dead) and ask him who’s this JFK guy.

Wasn't Kennedy shot in November?

Classic thread.

90s, Golden era.
But at an age to experience it all and understand, take it all in.

Pre social media era.

Sorry 😂

6th grade school farewell dance in 1972. Asking myself why I didn't kiss Karen Mulder - she was hubba hubba.

 

[The Fresh Oil]

That's the one.

Sorry 😂

Thought you knew something about the future and not letting on

2550 to 2490 B.C. It would have been awesome to see the building of the Pyramids.

2004 Koh Phanang.
Picked up two Irish backpackers at a full moon party and banged them both for the next week.
Good times…

2nd October 2005. You know the place

 

[kiwitiger]

Berlin olympics 1936.
That would be top of my list. Sporting or otherwise

Nice one, I’m going to say go with the grassy knoll. You would have gone down with Oswald if you were there. this way you can confirm or dispel a conspiracy without getting caught.

having read through the posts there are a lot of musical, sporting, political and financial moments I would love to be able to zip back to.

i would also like to be around when they find a cure for cancer and dementia and other health problems both mental and physical. When the world finally does away with war and war mongers. the end of woke behaviour and when people actually learn to respect and care for each other. not everyone should get a ribbon for competing, I am athletic so entered running races, I couldn’t spell so didn’t enter the smelling pee.
I want to be around when race and religion are no longer a factor and most importantly when social media (except the footy forums) are no longer a thing and when the kardashians are banned from all forms of media.

I'd like to be in Northern France in 1916-18. I'd like to meet my great-uncle and both of my grandfathers. I'd like to know if I'm like "Happy" and if he was as kind as he looks in the in the photo I've seen. I'd encourage him to live and enjoy as much as he possibly can before March 1917, and I'd let him know he'll always be remembered.

I would like to be there too Suze. Anytime prior to 23rd October 1917, when a bomb landed in a certain muddy bunker.
