- bodily hairless
- good at cards

I would love to

Be very very clever (professor type of intellect).
To be able to sing beautifully so as not to frighten the neighbours.
To be shorter.... always hated my height.
To be a bit richer... not billlions, but just enough to be more comfortable.
To be more confident... been a real wimp all my life.
To stop feeling sorry for myself. Can't help it, hate my life.
To be able to tell jokes properly.
To fix my computer when it goes wrong. I always have to shout HELP!
To be in the south of France right now for a few weeks holiday.
And mostly, - to own a camper van.

Oh OK Janerowena get your point, in fact a lot of the campers on the beach hut site seem more like Stepford Wives, one particular pair (they may have been beachhutters though) were amaiezzed dahling that they were both born in the Himarlayers, 'Oh how amaiezzing ' said one ' and how old were you when you were born?'

Having said that I love the place. A beach hut would do me.

I would love to
Have my original hair colour back
Not be fat
Have a talent, any talent
Have better teeth
Travel more
Stop getting in a tizzy
Cut my working hours

I like this but come on Ladies and Gentlemen - fantasise- this is not about your actual life as the kids say and not about being discontented with your lot but a fantasy life.
I would also like to be
- a riverboat gambler
- Goldie Hawns best friend
- James Bond's next nemesis

have fun smile

hildajenniJ Fri 29-Aug-14 09:23:57

Oh well if you want real fantasy,
I would like to:
Own my own, private tropical island
Have a large yacht moored at the jetty
Employ a cook and a housekeeper
Spend my time entertaining interesting house guests.
Look fabulous all the time.

Lona Fri 29-Aug-14 09:33:53

I would like to be invisible (on demand) and to be able to teleport!

Oh boy, would I be able to tell some tales! grin

Nytsom Fri 29-Aug-14 10:22:40

I would like to be ..

Exactly as I am!
With all my faults.
With memories of time gone bye; good and bad.
Ask for nothing and get what your given.
Live with respect and love for others.
Take the bitter with the sweet.
Thank God for my life.

grin Now forget the above!

I'd like : Good Health; Lots of Wealth, and more than my fair share of Happiness. smile

NfkDumpling Fri 29-Aug-14 10:35:19

To have the figure I had thirty years ago - and the skin to fit it,
To have the energy my DGC have,
To have un-knackered knees, hips and back
Have a fit and healthy DH
Win loads and loads of dosh

Then, I could

Learn to fly and own a helicopter - one of those little whirlybird ones with the big bubble windscreen,
Have a lovely house with paddocks where I could look out at my own horses.
Have a yacht with all the latest gadgets - and know how to use them.

Grannybug Fri 29-Aug-14 11:21:10

Well if it's fantasy here goes!

A would like to be a superhero/heroine for a year
Talk to the animals to get their opinions about current affairs!

harrigran Fri 29-Aug-14 11:40:26

Nytsom has voiced my thoughts exactly smile

janerowena Fri 29-Aug-14 11:53:56

You know what - I quite like my life really.

I know I could ask for better health, more money, DD living closer, friends living closer and so on, but really, I think I am lucky to have led quite a nice life.

And if someone could inflict a nasty painful illness on Ex, that would make my happiness complete. smile

grin

Kiora Fri 29-Aug-14 12:14:21

O.k if it's real fantasy I'd like to own a yacht with a captain. Moored every month by a different beautiful island. My masseur would be George clooney who's job would be to rub me down twice a day with soothing scented oil. I'd have the best chief in the world in the kitchen who could produce the most delicious un fattening food. In the afternoon George could erect ( stop it stop it, now, now your imagination is running wild) a hammock and gently rock me back and forth while reading to me. The seas would ways be calm and there would always be a gentle warm scented breeze......and I'd fit into a white thong.! wink

suebailey1 Fri 29-Aug-14 14:22:47

mmmm George.

janerowena Fri 29-Aug-14 16:42:36

No, not George.

Richard Armitage!

Or, starring in a new scandi-crime series from this Saturday, Ola Rapace who is gorgeous. Come to think of it, he looks like Richard Armitage. hmm

Not to get up to anything, you understand, but they could escort me to al the events DBH doesn't enjoy. And actually look as if they were enjoying it. I took him to a ceilidh and he looked as if his ears were having hot nails thrust through them.

rubylady Sat 30-Aug-14 03:15:33

I would live in a cottage by the sea
Have a chef to prepare gorgeous meals
Have a cleaner to keep on top of the dust (that means the cleaner cleans, not putting the cleaner actually on top of the dust)
A different man to keep me company depending on my mood, Micky Flanagan for comedy, Sir David Attenborough for nature talks, Russell Brand for discussions
Have Hugh Grant in my bed every night (and twice in the morning wink)
Obviously be the same weight I was when I got into the silver skirt which is hanging in my wardrobe looking forlorn
Have GNer's parties at least once a month (shipping everyone in by private jet)
Laugh until it hurts every day.

etheltbags1 Sat 30-Aug-14 20:30:35

I would like to be able to manage without going into overdraft after two weeks in the month.
To be able to swim the crawl
To be 5 stone slimmer
Have a lovely attractive face, not fat and saggy.
Banish grey hair for ever and live to see my lovely dgd grow up(this is the most important one.).

vampirequeen Sat 30-Aug-14 21:24:57

constance Tue 02-Sept-14 10:48:49

Am loving these! Especially the idea of Richard Armitage as a private daily masseur! Hadn't even occurred to me to go there, I was too busy wondering if I could really learn to sing properly in tune rather than 50% of the time

(And just googled Ola Rapace)

janerowena Tue 02-Sept-14 19:46:50

He's really rather nice, isn't he...

NanKate Wed 03-Sept-14 22:04:44

Keep my health for at least another 15 years
Persuade DH not to work so hard
NEVER do shi**y housework again

janerowena Thu 04-Sept-14 11:54:31
