If you could have one thing from your past

The feeling of being a kid on the summer holidays. Not knowing at all what day it is, and just playing outside with friends when things seemed a lot more innocent and didn't really have any worries.

Same :)

Riding our bikes or rollerskating around the village without a care in the world. Playing man hunt in the corn field. Lying on the grass watching the clouds go by. Spending all our pocket money on ice poles and new wheels for our skates.
 
The summer of 1996.

Maybe my most memorable period of time so far, it was almost completely perfect for many reasons :)

(Either that or my collection of Transformers when I was a child, which would now be worth a small fortune :/)
 
It would be my dad without a moments hesitation.

He died when I was 16 - he was only 46 and my whole family rolled into one

I'd love ten minutes with my grandfather to tell him all that I couldn't before he died.

As for a time in my life...

Can I go back to late 1999/2000?

No job, no bills, no worries and more money than I could spend.

I would have my ex (just split up with her 2 weeks ago), i was going to propose to her and now we dont even say hello any more :(

I would do anything to have her back even for 5minutes.

oh well..... life goes on i suppose.
 
Hard one to call, I've been very lucky and most of my family are still around me. Never meet my granddad thou who sounded like a brilliant person so 10mins to meet him would be really nice.

A time is harder to say, carefree days of being 12-13 again would be nice but I would probably have to go for my 2nd year of University. Everyday was a wonderful day, had such a brilliant time and I really do miss those days.
 
For me it'd be to have my mum, just to say thanks. She died when I had started uni in 2002, and I couldn't get home in time to see her. It was all very sudden.

One thing I've found (for me anyway) is that memories never go away but its no good dwelling on the what if's or sitting there wishing things that have happened could have been different. You can get yourself into a fair old state thinking like that.

Can't think of anything specific, like a thing, or a person, personally.

I'd probably have ten minutes lazing in the sun with my friends at the park, aged about 10, before everything got complicated. :)

Either of those would do me, i'm not fussy. Ahhhh the days... I love to sit back and think about thos days, they were the best.
 
I'd want 10 mins with myself when I was sixteen. I'd make sure he was made fully aware of the pitfalls of credit cards, women, booze, recreational drugs and IT careers.

I'd love to restart my life from 16. No point giving it a moments thought though, what's done is done and the only purpose dwelling on it serves is to depress me. So I'll think about other stuff instead.

Thing is at age 16 no-one listens to good advice! :p
 
Go back to the day I'd met my ex, and avoid her like the plaque, then I wouldn't have been in the situation I was in before Christmas.
 
A time when a friend told me of all the places they could be, they wanted to be there with me. I can remember the moment perfectly, they probably don't even remember it.
 
Playing in the park with my best friend, at that stage we didn't know anything about the wide world, and all we had to worry about was being home at 6 for tea.

I'd listen to myself though. If I showed up from the future and told me to do something specific I'd do it. If it was important enough to invent time travel and go to all that effort just to get a message to myself I'd presume it was worth listening to it.
 
My uncle for ten minutes, I'd want to know what happened to him and why. Im not sure why but I'd want to know he felt no pain. I'd want some quick advice and to hear his terrible jokes again.

We were only given back half of him, I'd like to see him as the whole, sound man he was.
