I’d like to go back to the fondly-remembered days of the first Lottery draws – then immediately after that, I’d amuse myself by dabbling with pre-boom property. Ah, that would be fun.

I’d quite like to revisit the drugs from the early 90’s too

When it was still acceptable for a chap to carry a sword ( about early 18th century I think )

It wouldn’t be the same 🙁 Closest you can come to doing it properly in the modern age would be trampling miners.

I’d still be a dull fart, but I’d like to imagine being a millionaire rockstar playboy who raced cars on the side inbetween trips to Monaco to sail my yacht.
