If You Could Turn Back Time...

[Smiley]

....would've loved to see my dad playing football in his prime. Scoring goals for Horwich RMI, making the back page of the BUFF, etc, etc.

 

Everyone else?.....

[jazza]

I'd loved to have known my father for the man he was before he suffered with Alzheimers. I was 8 when he was taken away from us.

It's true the saying that I wish I knew then what I know now. I'd go back to aged 18 after I left home and went to work in that London. There were a number of missed opportunities in work and life because I didn't take the risks.

I'd have not dumped the two birds I did between the ages of 15 and 18.  They're proper fit now.

I would of bought that packet of fruittellas in 1992 instead of fruitangs. #regrets

So you wish you'd become a bigamist, or would it be more like a commune?

I'd be more than delighted with either.

I woud have loved to watch my old man play in his pomp too.

On a loop. Groundhog Day style.

[Horwich]

When did he play for Hrmifc?

[gonzo]

For stuff I never got to see...

 

Probably my grandad playing saxophone in the jazz clubs of the north west.

 

Spider spence was his jazz name! Love it.

[Traf]

Spider Spence is also the love child of spider and Oli.

Simple one for me. The Friday night my grandad died. Always used to call in on a Friday to see if they wanted owt before going back Saturday morning to do a few jobs and put their bets on at Ladbrokes for them.

 

He was in bed with a 'bilious attack' and shouted down for me to get wom to the kids and not come up. He passed away in the night when the abcess in his windpipe got to such a size that it cut off his oxygen supply. Lifetime of smooking Park Drive I suppose.

 

Still my biggest regret that I didn't go up those stairs and see him alive for one last time. Brought me up and was my father figure.

[Zulu]

Early 1960's on the Embankment with my dad and my grandad. I was seven and the world was bloody brilliant.

[wovlad]

Never having the chance to have a pint with my father.

[Breightmet Boy]

I'd tell my mate to 'fuck off' who's team had a game whilst ours was called off and they needed a keeper. Nearly 5 years in plaster from being 24-29 years old, my best years ruined. Had to finish college the lot, all through doing my mate a favour, we was only 15mins into the game as well.

 

Cheating on a ex, she never found out but I knew and didn't have the guts to tell her, I ruined it.

[jazza]

I couldn't begin to Tell the mistakes and fuck ups I've done in my life but the one thing I am so glad I did & don't want to turn back the clock on is meeting my fiancé irina which was a massive gamble. Sometimes life kicks you in the teeth but thus time it has dealt me 4 aces. I don't want to turn the clock back.
