scottsdad Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 I would go on a tour of music events. Woodstock, Live Aid, see some classic era Pink Floyd, Queen with Freddie, AC/DC with Bon Scott. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TxRover Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 The first question would be am I dumped into whatever time/place without resources (making anything much older than about 1945 dicey on both the medical front and the stranger in an area fromt) or are you an observer (meaning you don’t experience, just view)? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Everyone would stink in the olden days, you wouldn't have a clue what they were talking about, you'd almost certainly catch an horrific disease and they'd likely catch something off you which would wipe out the species and prevent you ever being born. Would have to just play it safe and go to the future and check the Lottery numbers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caledonian1 Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 1 hour ago, velo army said: Pre agricultural times. I'm fascinated by the idea of Scotland as completely natural and unchanged by human engineering. Wild forests, trees covering the mountains and proper wildlife. Absolutely. Love to see what wildlife existed then. Would also like to witness the Romans in Scotland - just how much more advanced they were and see them piss aff never to return 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 23 minutes ago, RuMoore said: Why would everyone stink? Well, obviously depending how far back you go. But even as recently as the start of the 20th century most people didn't brush their teeth, and the idea of bathing and changing clothes regularly is fairly recent. Also, if you get an abscess it would just fester before there were antibiotics etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HTH You can’t travel only through time, you’d need to enter co-ordinates on the spacetime continuum in any case. If I can choose my location too I’m popping in to the pre Pictish Iron Age in Northern Scotland to find out what Brochs were actually for and how they were roofed, swinging past the Permian to see dimetrodon and going forward a million years to be probed and experimented on by homo electronicus and their Alpha Centaurian overlords. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
