    Georgian period England.


    If you ask me we could do with more "how do you do" than "how'ye". And hats. Definitely more hats.

    70's - Loved the shirts, suits, sideburns and the flairs

    Definately the 60's America, summer of drugs,love and sex.
    Magic.

    Would have liked to be born around 1950 in the states. Late teens in the 60's, 20's in the 70's. Clothes, music and cars from that era are awesome.

    It would have to be after sanitation has been invented. I'd hate not to have proper toilets and people having a lack of basic hygiene.

    The two eras for me would either be 1960s New York or California. The Summer of Love. It was a hedonistic liberated time and people enjoyed themselves. I think Mad Men captures it perfectly. If I could go back to the time that would be great.

    Alternatively 1980s Miami. Again for the hedonism. I bet you'd have a whale of a time there.

    I gotta say 1970's New York, just to grow up along with the Hip Hop scene there

    I have lived through the golden age and removed the varnish from history for myself .Fancy a stay in an olde Inn and the fleas hopping and smells everywhere .People were old at 40 and death was everywhere . These are very interesting times . I'm even looking forward to looking back on them . Hollywood has no truth .

    Wouldn't mind going back to the 80s and settling down until 1999... be nice to appreciate those eras as an adult. Compared to some of the eras it's not very ambitious I know, if something involving time travel can be considered unambitious.

    I'd love to live in the 80's, right from the start. Not just for the music, but living in the future doesn't appeal to me, there's enough 'not knowing' in the present day. It would be great to be a part of a time when a great change was going on and knowing where the change was leading. For example, to know that the cold war was ending and to see it actually happen when it did.

    From an Irish perspective probably the 1950's if only to see the Wexford hurling team and Rackard and Ring. I've always thought that it would be right craic watching a hurling match back when the crowd overspilled onto the pitch DURING the match, and all the players wore peak caps! The journey up to Croker would have been right craic as well. No motorway back then!

    For me, going back to a previous era would be $hit. It'd be great to visit a pre-industrial age if you had engineering, electrical, plumbing, medical, carpentry or any other type of practical skill. What the fcuk would I do with my Arts degree? I'd be a fcuking pleb, sleeping in his own pi$$ and $hit, that's what.

    Go back in time and rip off all those play writes and poets, make a mint you would.

    Wouldn't be any different from the present day so
