if you could time travel

I've often thought it would be cool to go back to something like the Battle of Hastings in a tank and watch as they all **** themselves

Apart from the Lottery etc... I would probably visit stone henge when it was built so see how the ****ers actualy did it.

Experimental history/archaeology has demonstrated that it's possible to:

i) Move the stones using heavy low-lying sledges during winter.
ii) Erect the uprights using well-known techniques.
iii) Place the top stones by building ramps.

It takes a lot of work and it isn't fast, but it can be done in a simple enough way if you have a lot of people willing to work long and hard on it.

I'd rather know why than how. There are some clues and some theories, but the purpose isn't certain. We know it was very important to very many generations of people, but not why. Probably religious and probably about life and death, maybe the journey to the afterlife...but that's largely extrapolating from the obvious importance of the site. There was another henge upriver and it has been hypothesised that the river in between symbolised the journey to the afterlife...but nobody really knows.

I might also go back to Abraham and try to persuade him to not start his religion (and therefore the religions that spun off from it). If he existed.

But in reality, I'd use a one-shot deal to make myself rich. So yeah, lottery.

Would have to go back to the times of all the religious figures inc Jesus etc to observe.

Forget going back a couple of weeks for the lottery numbers, thats boring
 
Would go back to when to when dinosaurs were about. Would obviously take some sort of spaceship with me (which I could operate on my own), lots of weapons, enough food to last me a lifetime and a computer with access to the internets when I get bored of looking at dinosaurs.
 
I've made some major mistakes in my life so would obviously go back & rectify those mistakes, Not for my own benefit I may add but for the benefit of the other people that were effected by my behaviour. :o
 
I thought about this for 2 minutes, Thats probably the most time i have given an issue in the past 48 hours :)

I thought about something romantic and fascinating like the Egyptian ideas or Stonehenge ones.. However if im brutally honest id go for the buying 99 Euro millions tickets with the same winning number. :)
