For all family to be healthy and happy. Which would mean DS working and leading a fulfilling life and DD to have a nice home and no money worries.
To be a size 12
A cure for dementia/cancer

Apart from the usual wishing well for the world re peace,famine and crime etc

In reality (1) perhaps a nice caring family all around us would be a blessing
(2)
Improved health & strength for my DH and myself

(3).....a quick & painless sale of this property & a move to an apartment of choice.

For husband to be the size he was 20 years ago

Enough money to be able to share between sons so youngest could come back to the UK whenever they felt like it and so eldest could give up work.

Not to end up in care with dementia!

All rather selfish sad

To have DH back again
To have the energy to do all the things I want to do
To own a private plane (and have the money to run it) in order that I can visit family in Australia whenever I want.

I'd like my Fairy Godmother to grant me three superpowers

1. Shapeshifting. I can instantly transform my appearance to look like someone else! Famous, ordinary or even a creature such as a horse or a bird! I believe Maya from Space 1999 was able to do this and she was called a Metamorph!

2. Time travel. I can hop back in time and witness famous events. I would be invisible though so as not to come to any harm.

3. Invisibility. I could have such fun with this! I'd visit my vile cheating ex and sneak in ad move things around or slam doors so he thought there was a ghost or blame his tart so they argue! Mwha ha ha!

Or if that's a bit over the top, I'd choose

1. To have a beautiful singing voice. I'm tone deaf and sound dreadful.

2. To be beautiful. Shallow I know!

3. Greyhound racing to be abolished and no more animal cruelty or abuse worldwide ever again.

To be born into a normal family.
To have a daughter.
To be short and blonde.

LynneB59 Sun 10-Jun-18 10:30:08

Just to be as shallow as most other people, I'd have:

to be a toned size 12

enough money to not have to work again (I've got 7 years until I can retire at 66)

To actually have some eyebrows, instead of having the daily chore of drawing them on!

Feels a bit like the Miss World responses but of course we all want an end to war and poverty.
I would wish my family to be healthy and happy
Like BlueBelle I hope to die before I'm incapacitated or have dementia.
Good thought NannyKay to give the last wish to someone who needs it more than I do.
Think I have been fortunate all things considered in my life so I am thankful for that.

Juggernaut Sun 10-Jun-18 10:04:13

To be a size 12/14 again!
To be able to draw/paint!
Oh, this is going to sound so trite, but can I please have World Peace?

DanniRae Sun 10-Jun-18 10:00:51

Thank you everyone for your three wishes but goodness me some of them have made me feel like crying sad

An end to all religion

For my daughter to move nearer to me and see her and GS more often.

To find a cure for arthritis

For DH to get his hearing back.

Nannykay Sun 10-Jun-18 09:20:00

For my son to come back to me and let me be part of his and my granddaughters life.

To get my health back, at least be able to walk again.

If she gave me those two, I would give my third wish to someone else in need.
