Answer 1

Id go back to the day before 'Black Wednesday' with all the facts under my belt that i needed to make a killing from it.

Id then take todays news paper to Blair the day before he went to Iraq and let him know the people who wanted Saddam gone, will soon change their minds.

Id go back to the day i lost a massive Catfish, and sharpen all my hooks and replace them with bigger ones.

Id pop to corals yesterday, knowing that my 2nd horse was gonna come last, and probably still pick the wrong 1.

And id go back to my wedding day, and relive the whole fine day once again (You guessed it, she's sitting next to me) :):)

Answer 2

I'd go back 3 years to the day (Cinco De Mayo 2004) and let my husband know that even though he's about to see his best friend get shot in the head (they were in Fallujah) that he would not only live, but walk out of the hospital the next day.

It's a big long story, but it comes down to this: He didn't get a chance to see what had happened, or to hear if his friend was OK. (a medic was near by and took him right away) He assumed, after seeing him shot in the head (the bullet actually hit his Kevlar) and seeing all the blood, that he was dead. Nearly 2 years went by before he found out the truth.

I'd do anything to go back and let him know that is was going to be OK and save him two years of pain.

Answer 3

Since when did Ireland beat Wales at the Rugby? Can't remember that.

No, think I'd like to revisit my 13th birthday - a born again teenager with angst. Interesting. Make it spotty angst.

Anyway, when you're at the Millennium Stadium and you hear 40,000 Welsh voices singing Land of My Fathers, you just know you're going to lose.

Well, that's the theory anyway.

Answer 4

Preventing Pickett's charge at Gettysburg would be good.

Make sure Grant was killed by his horse falling on him.

Showing the Confederates how to make a real submarine and torpedoes.

Use a shoulder-fired missle to shoot down Hitler's plane before WW II

But changing history would change the present and perhaps for the worse.

To be an unseen and recording observer during the last months of the life of Jesus Christ would be interesting.

Answer 5

I would have to say, it would have to be an event that happened this year ! for reasons i can't go in-to. I lost my link up with the outside world..

However With-in 7 days bfpoonline was linked up again, the web was mine again, the doors opened to the out-side world..... Yes i got a new lap-top Thanks due to in-comming flights.

You would have thought my stress levels would have been lighten wouldn't have you...... Was until i put it on and saw its OS was Windows Vista.

So in Answer to you Question: got there in the end.... ! the event in time i wish i could go back to has to be, the day i thought i show off and take my lap-top up the hills with me : - (

Answer 6

Any event? Then either to see the wonder of the apostles when Jesus rose again, or on Pentecost when the Holy Spirit entered the apostles, Peter preached and 3,000 people were born again in one day.

Military? probably the Duke of Marlborough sticking it to the French.

Answer 7

The Roman invasion of Britain-with a few machine guns so the Celts would keep the gits away and change the world for the better!

Answer 8

I would like to go back to the year 537 BC when Cyrus the king of Persia conquered Babylon and freed the 100,000 Jews to return to their home to Israel.
I also like to be in period between 1950 to 1970, to see Beatles, Pinkfloyd, Joplin and... I also love the fashion of that era.

Answer 9

1) I would like to see the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

2) I would like to see the battle of Trafalgar.

3) I would like to see Gen. Lee surrender to Gen. grant.

4) I would like to see the Normandy Landings.

5) I would like to see a lot of things to many to list here, great question.

Answer 10

I don't really care about changing events, but i wish that i was hiding in the wardrobe with a camera, on the night when Frank Sinatra slipped one to Marilyn Munroe......how much would THOSE pictures be worth.........
Or maybe, standing in the entrance to the Alma tunnel in Paris on the night of 31st August 1997, with a camcorder and maybe a bulletproof vest and disguise.......
