To see my nana, or more actually, to rake my son to see my nana and grandad, theyd bloody love him.

A million pounds, or even 100k

To be honest I'd probably queue for 9 hrs for cash from £50k upwards, maybe even less actually, I mean I've queued for longer for less front row at barrier to see Take That

Instant solution to being slim/toned that lasts forever

Free botox that also lasts forever

Not a standing up queue but a 10 hr wait for emergency surgery at A&E…. No food or drink for the duration (fasting for general anaesthetic) and a very uncomfortable chair.
Even more urgent cases kept arriving throughout the day and I kept losing my place in the queue.
Never felt so ill in my life but I’d wait my turn again - saved my life.

A nobel one, but then what is in the galaxies, we will always need war, even if humans do find peace across the globe 🌎

Snog Bryan Ferry. Or just stroke his face and tell him of my undying love.

or a chat with my dad.

If you're talking about Bryan Ferry in his younger days you'd have to knock me out the way first !
I'd also queue 9 hours for my dad 😔

Really struggling to think of anything ... certainly not to see a wooden box as unpatriotic as that is. As I live 2 hours from London it would take more time than I have anyway

Possibly a limb, life saving treatment, a winning lottery ticket £100,000+ , a chance to speak with my deceased mum. Vague but anything my children needed (emphasise NEEDED)

Aside from that absolutely nothing!!

Almost exactly what I was going to write. Health/life related (myself or family), enough money or anything my children needed. Also the being magically slim one a PP mentioned.

Oh. Shiny hair!
