If you could 'System Restore' your life.......

....what year would you go back to and why? Id go back to 1968 and accept that job offer of a trainee camera operator with the brand new, fledgling, London Weekend Television.

1958 i would have tried harder at school instead of a~sing around

[poodicat]

1976 didnt marry

Thankyou very much for answering my post Islowry and poodicat.I did think it was an interesting topic and worthy of a little discussion but as usual the Chatterbank In-Crowd has made sure that nobody else gets a look in .Its hard to see how a site like CB which is available worldwide should be controlled by possibly less than 50 regular contributors.

1979 - back to a previous boyfriend - happy times!!

[cazzz1975]

I would probably go back to when I started secondary school (1986) and put more effort in to my GCSEs which at the time I was very dont care-ish and rebellious about.

I was given a grammar school place ...long story ..
I went to secondary school ,and it wasn't enough
for me so I gave up on my studies as I was bored
so if could go back in time and change circumstances
it would have been grammar school , the weird thing is my
best friend went to grammar and ended up as a single mum of
3 and on the benefit system , and never worked .

But if you did system restore your life what would happen to all the good things that have happened to you that might not have happened if you had taken a different path? (If you see what I mean?)

If you did 'system restore' your life,then the future would be a blank canvass, so you wouldn't know the good times or the bad times you actually experienced

I would go back to April 15, 1945,or in fact the week before.
I was in the army and chose to go to a place called Bergen Belsen(we had no idea what it was).
I could have chosen to stay where we were and do "ordinary" duties,but silly me I went thinking it would be nice to get away fro the humdrum army life.
That day has coloured the rest of my life,and I can never wipe out the images of the things I saw there.

I'd go back to 1969.....and use contraception...(if the daughter is logged-in I'm only joking).................

I'm fascinated that there may be as many as 50 Abers.

Aye .... If only we could turn the clocks back.

Talking of clocks .... here's a handy tip. Take the battery out of your clock. It will prolong the battery's life, and your clock will be showing the correct time twice a day.

I'm not one for regrets or remorse, so I wouldn't do a system restore. I'm really happy where I am now, some things could have been better, but changing them would effect my happiness today.

[ummmm]

I couldn't think of a time to restore to either. I'm happy.
