Athens during the golden age in 5th Century BC. Pericles was boss, get to see Parthenon and Acropolis in its full glory. As long as I died before the plague started.

Reckon you've already been back and it was you that started it...



Haha, seen this before - quality. Tho I reckon that only really works for the western world. Sure there must be a few places you could go back in time to, if you were the only white guy.... :o :o
 

When your a history buff there are so many places but if i had to pick one. It would be with Alfred the Great in the Wessex marshes plotting his gorrilla war against the Vikings. Then watch him unite the saxon Thanes and free Wessex and the south before taking the 1st steps toward a united England.
 
If you could travel back in time to another era:

Where would it be?
Why?
And when?

Although seeing Liverpool pre-war in it's heyday would be amazing I'm going to pick 1920s proabition Chicago.

The architecture from that era is amazing, everything including lamp posts and bins were well designed. The blues music is great, the way people dressed with the smart suits and gel hair and America just seemed the place to be back then. The cars are great and the proabition interested me.


Plus you get to hang out of trucks firing a Tommy gun!

You could give him a heads up so he didn't burn the cakes too.
 

I would go back in time to chat with Jules Verne about Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea. I would get him to change Captain Nemo to Captain Whitebootman, and the name of the Nautilus to the Royal Iris.
 
I would have loved to have been in Westminster on the 7th and 8th of May 1940, watching Chamberlain get ragged all over the place by some of the greatest statesmen of that - or indeed any other - age.

Also seeing the whole fleet on D-Day must have been something; or witnessing one of the thousand-bomber raids. Or being at Prokhorovka.
