..for a few days - not to change anything, just to relive it, when would it be and why?

most of my childhood......before i had any 'REAL' worries

Live Aid day - cos I drank too much and fell asleep on the floor and missed most of it !!!!

My wedding day last year. Kaye x

oooh just realised you sed we couldn't change anything, so it would have to be something that was really good already and didn't need improving in any way hmmmmmmm how about last Sunday - that'll do me !!!!! Maz. XX

hiya linda . ah bless. x

When I first saw my first love across a crowded room. The first time I held my sons after they were born. When I said goodbye for the last time to my dad. nell

It would be nice to be a kid again for a bit Shelli wouldn't it? I wondered if mums would think of when their kids were born - do you think dads are the same? Why doesn't that surprise me Maz? pmsl Lynda - you've told me yr 27 so it can't take that long to think back! ;))

David dunno about other bloke but my hubby reckoned after the birht of the twins that it was a total non event!!!!!!!! but funny enough when i had youngest three yrs later he was over whelmed men never will understand them PMSL

I remembered what yr nan used to say to you Lynda! pmsl Shelli - I haven't worked out women or other men yet so it's no good asking me!

New Years Eve 1995, Richard & I took over the Sun Inn at Watley Somerset in the October & we were missing our four best friends who we would usually be with in West London. At 11:30pm the door to the pub opened & in they walked. Half way through dinner they had decided they missed us too so dropped everything & drove for two & a half hours to spend a couple of hours with us before driving back as one of them had to be at work at 9am. If I could have more than a few days it would be the 7mths we spent as holding managers at The Sun. Vivienne

Seeing as it's my thread Vivienne, you can have as long as you like - you're lucky to have mates like that:) Lynda - not really lol

Thanks David, Richard & I had a total of 13yrs together but those 7mths were the happiest, working together with the loveliest bunch of customers you could wish for. Before the next Xmas he had died sudenly of lung cancer. Vivienne

The day i left school.......i didnt take any piccies!!! When i had hair down to my knees..........i would have stopped Melanie Wilson sticking bubble gum in my hair. (had too have it all cut off) My nanny, just wish i could have had more time with her. So much i should have said and didnt. Going on Oppertunity Knocks......me the daft bat, thought the South of France for two weeks was a better option!!!! So i missed my moment! Ahhh well eh!! Donna x

Vivienne I'm really sorry to hear that - no wonder that time was so special. David

The 60s, i had a whale of a time. My god, i was such a bad girl.lol. Shirley Ann.

Hi David, Difficult to choose.......... there are so many times I would like to relive.............. but I would love another child's Christmas in Wales (to quote Dylan Thomas). I'd begin with the anticipation on the train journey accompanied by mysterious packages and Pops meeting us at the station to help us up the hill with the luggage. My Nain would be waiting on the step to wrap her arms around me and lead me into the front parlour to see the tree and the lights. I'd open my stocking on Christmas morning then we'd go to chapel. I can still hear the Welsh bass voices echoing around as we sang the carols. Then back up the hill and into the front parlour to open the 'proper' presents, one at a time with the smell of the roasting turkey filling the house. After dinner my uncles and aunts would arrive and we'd go for a walk down to the beach in our new Christmas jumpers. Then back home to sing carols around the piano and play party games. I'd fall asleep at some point and Pops would carry me up to bed. Boxing Day morning Dad would take me down to the beach again and here on the prom I learned to roller skate, ride a two wheeler bike or scoot a scooter. Never in my life have I felt as safe and as loved as I did in that house in the times before I knew the world could be an unkind place. And that some day I would have to grow up Gwynne

Snap Shirley I loved me teenage years. But also the fifties had such a happy child hood think I was protected a lot from the miserable things that were happening around us. Germaine x

I too had a fantastic childhood, i was surely blessed with a wondreful family. BUT the 60s was the most wonderful craziest time of my life, don't remember a night when i wasn't out raving. I tell you my kids would be shocked.lol Shirley Ann.

You are right about the 60's Shirley boy if our kids knew about then when I think I did the most stupidest (spl?) things. I would have slaughtered my daughter if she had behaved like that. LOL!!!! Germaine x
