I’d be Beyoncé headlining Glastonbury. I’d love to see what it feels like to have that talent, confidence and power on stage. Must be amazing!

Anyone else? Just wanting to lighten the mood Grin

I regal today and would like to be the Queen in her coronation

WankPuffins · 20/12/2020 13:49

Kate Middleton.

I could shove the kids off with the nanny and pretend look sincere for a bit. Preferably a day when William was away.

WankPuffins · 20/12/2020 13:50

Oh a specific day.
Sod Kate Middleton then.

I'd be Sonia when her single went to number one in the eighties. She looked so chuffed Grin

Any Wimbledon tennis champ at the moment she won the championship.

[can't play tennis for toffee but it's been a fantasy since childhood]

I'd like to be Nicole Kidman in her leaving the divorce lawyer's office photo. The pure joy on her face! It makes me happy every time I see it.

Viviennemary · 20/12/2020 13:59

I can think of loads of folk I wouldn't want to be. I'd like to be Margot Fonteyn first time on stage partnering Nureyev.

Palavah · 20/12/2020 14:00

Hillary or Tenzing summitting Everest.

Justiceisblind · 20/12/2020 14:06

link to Nicole please

Twerking9to5 · 20/12/2020 14:12

Love these! @WankPuffins love the idea of being Sonia in the 80s!

Don't want to be a downer but I want to be the girlfriend of the man who dumped me recently!! That's who I'd be!

Let me try and think of something more exciting... Maybe just for a day I'd like to be Christina Aguilera at the height of her fame.

akitamiss · 20/12/2020 14:16

It must be amazing to be a great musician going onstage for a huge gig.

Fabulous Grin

I expect Katie Holmes was the same! Vile little man.

I'm in my 70s, not brilliant health, physically disabled, quite a bit of pain, use a walking frame. For one day I would like to swap with an athlete - just to remember how to feel full of health, no pain, and freedom of movement. I would run out of my front door and keep running until the 24 hours were up. I wonder how far I would get?

I'm not sure I would be ready to give the body back, I think they will have a fight on their hands. Grin

Justiceisblind · 20/12/2020 15:06

"I wonder how far I would get?"

I'm imagining you in a hilly landscape. you get to choose the season.
you can lie down for a rest in the moss for a bit if you like and a deer might wander up to you.

Northernshepherd · 20/12/2020 15:08

Any of the moon landing guys on that day. Brilliant have a little stroll on the moon but not have to worry about take off or landing

SheldonesqueIsUnwell · 20/12/2020 15:14

Not anyone in particular but I’d have loved to have been in the room when they realised they’d cracked the enigma code.

CountessFrog · 20/12/2020 15:16

Diana on her wedding day. Swapping my ballet flats for trainers and running the fuck away.

Twerking9to5 · 20/12/2020 17:51

@CountessFrog how different things would have been...

Twerking9to5 · 20/12/2020 17:52

@Crankley that’s a good one. Must be a wonderful feeling to be at the peak of physical fitness.

And @Justiceisblind the imagery of the moss and the deer made me a bit misty eyed!

@Crankley I've seen your posts on a few threads and you are, quite frankly, awesome and lovely.

Stevie nicks performing Rhiannon on tour with Fleetwood mac in 1977 on tour.

Icenii · 20/12/2020 18:04

Boudicca! Not sure what day but I'd like to see what it was like back then.
