    As per title for a bit of fun, If you could time travel to any place and come back, where and when would you go, and why, if you like?

    I fancy ancient egypt, to observe the thousands of slaves building the pyraminds and the pharohs lording it up, were they Aliens?

    Well if we can come back, I reckon I would like to travel 1000 years into the future. Most of the current existential threats would have been superseded (singularity, nuclear holocaust, environmental collapse etc) by new ones and I could come home with some solutions to the old ones. Also a sports almanac.

    Northern Europe about 40, 000 yrs ago to check out how the other human species were doing, and then forward to about 4,900 years ago, to have a chat with the guys messing about with stones in Wiltshire just to see if they were actually doing it just to mess with us.

    Boston USA last weekend in June 1999, I’d find myself give me a slap and tell me of course I’ll go back with those 2 student babes, idiot

    You swine! It was basically ground zero for me and music, listened to it all (and taped it, still got the worn-thin tapes and lovingly handwritten labels) and basically popped out the end a metalhead 😆 Probably single most important formative experience of present day me!

    Imagine it was smellier in person though.

    Istanbul, August 2008 – I’d make sure things ended up the same way but I’d try not to be such a **** about it.

    Assuming I’m allowed the requisite survival gear, I’d want to witness the collision that created the moon.

    I’d like to see some of the other human species before they became extinct.

    India at the start of our meddling over there maybe 1620’s ish. Go native as they liked to say at the time. Tiger hunts, hareems, North West Frontier, Nepal wide open and a mystery, some opium pipes to chill out. What’s not to like.

    May 1998 to lock the garage door before some oaf walked in and nicked my bike.

    I’m over it now though, clearly.

    My house, this morning, just before i broke the lovely retro royal doulton sink i was supposed to be installing. 😳 😥

    Otherwise, the opening of the Atomium, the HOC public gallery at the end of the repeal of the corn laws, and the Stade de France at the magnificent end of the 1998 world cup.

    Nuremberg rally would be interesting.

    Petra when the Naboteans were building it.

    The junction near Arkhanes in Crete when PLF was abducting General Kriepe.

    Any time at the Villa Ariadne when John Pendlebury et al were there.

    So many possibilities!

    Too late for the Red Dwarf quote, damn.

    I’d quite like to stay in my house and go back 50, 100, 200, 300, 500, 1000, 1500, 2000 and 10,000 years ago, just to have a look around.

    I’d love to climb the tree that would probably be here and look down towards the Severn Estuary coastline lined with forest as pristine wilderness.

    I’d travel to the future and come back to save the planet and your sorry asses from impending catastrophe, but you’d probably think I was nuts…

    Over / around the Normandy coast, June 6th 1944. Irrespective of the tragedy of war it must have been a sight to behold.

    For the times when Cardiff existed, I’d love to walk down the stream bank to the road and then walk down into town. I’d have to pass through three or four separate villages separated by countryside to get to town.

    Or failing that, either 21st October 1805 or 26th August 1346 as I was obsesed with those as a kid. Much less martial these days
