To ask if you believe in time slips?

I'm on the fence about woo things, however I do like reading stories.

There are lots of stories about time slip experiences, with the most well known being Bold Street, Liverpool. The stories I find interesting are when more than one person (from the 'present' time) sees the 'past' at the same time. In that case it can't be a hallucination - they're either both colluding liars or they really did see 'something'.

Has anyone had any such experiences? I suppose if such a thing exists, we could 'slip' an hour or a day into the past and not even realise.

No. Bollocks.

One of the most popular claims is that researchers at Montauk developed the ability to manipulate time and space. Allegedly using advanced physics, they could transport individuals through time, into alternate realities, or different dimensions.

only when research and development companies are developing and testing technology and it either does exactly as it should but the observer was in the right place right time so to speak, and or its an experiment gone pickles

Don't believe in 'em. Love a story. See also: ghosts

I haven't had any experiences of time slips and don't believe in them, but I would love it if they were real! I want to believe. I find the whole concept really interesting and love ready about them. Sometimes if I'm wandering around an area that looks a bit untouched by time, the thought of a time slip crosses my mind for a second - but, alas, no time slip experiences so far!
