Had enough of 2020 so I'm going back to 1989. I'm off to the under 18s disco to try and snog that fit lad in 5th year who looks like Jason Donovan. Bros is on the radio and I've just back combed my hair and sprayed it solid with insette. I'm wearing Body shop kiwi lip balm and impulse body spray. Anyone coming ?

QuestionnableMouse those were good days, but I had 2 horrible older brothers. I'd take that, other this for a few months.

I'm with you in 1989. Just had a perm to try to make my hair look like Kylie's but I'm not sure it's really "me". First driving lesson later, then off to my Saturday job tomorrow in Safeway.

Anyone can have a lift unless you're going to 2016

I'll hitch in back to 2004 folks. With my size 12 denim mini skirt and crochet jumper that needed a pretty bra under rather than my current shoulder boulder holders. Farmers tan, working 10 hour days on the land and 8 hour nights in the pub with a special friendship with the landlord 😂

I need to get back to 1978 please. I'm seven, it's Saturday night, Autumn. My Dad draws the curtains so it's cosy and warm in the lounge, Mum just getting in from work. I'm eating Heinz Toast Toppers for tea, my sister has sardines on toast. We're watching Jim'll Fix It (sorry everyone, but we didn't know) then later it's The Generation Game with Larry Grayson. My sister and I have been out all day on our bikes round the village, we bought Pick and Mix and Look In magazine. I've got no worries, anxiety or hang ups. Can I just stay here please?

Can I go back to2012 please?

I know it’s not long ago but life was pretty good: Kate and William got married, the UK BOSSED the Olympics opening ceremony and the Queen’s diamond jubilee was pretty good too. I was in a new job, which I loved, my children were still children and ISTR the sun was out all year (ok, that’s probably an exaggeration but ykwim)

I would like to go forward to see where we are next Mother’s Day. Will we be on MN saying well that was a moment’s madness or what?

geordiema77 · 20/03/2020 19:37

Hahahaha! Is anyone watching BBC4? TOTP 1989 for the next hour!!!!

I would go back to 2002. I had a live in holiday job. No mobile phones, I used to call my Mum once a week from a public phone box. Got paid about £80 a week and had the time of my life.

I'm watching it - but I don't remember a single record that's been on it so far except Neneh Cherry. I spent so much time at raves I had nothing to do with chart music. Can we swerve your time machine to a field near the M25 in 1989?

MrsPear · 20/03/2020 19:47

Please may I go back to my first day in halls in 1999 and instead of taking that call I’ll ask them to reply I’ll call back later. And won’t.
