Ce qui me manque dans les Sims c'est l'adrénaline quand t'allais dormir le soir parce que tu pouvais te faire cambrioler à tout moment et bagarrer avec le cambrioleur. Une époque.

I asked my year 1 classes

'If you could time travel, where would you go?'
Here is my analysis
A THREAD
Alice – 'To after school'
— George Pointon (@GeorgePointon_) June 25, 2021
Straight off to a belter here. She could go anywhere. I mean literally wherever, whenever (said Shakira). But Alice has decided to use this omnipotence to move, 47 minutes into the future. I took it personally to be honest. My lessons aren't that bad.
Katie – 'So I can go to the park'
— George Pointon (@GeorgePointon_) June 25, 2021
There is a park literally outside the school, so, again, Katie also wants to use her power to travel 40 minutes ahead of time. I'm annoyed but I do appreciate and love the innocence of it. Why live more than today? Today is the best we have.
Jack – 'Back in time REALLY far'
— George Pointon (@GeorgePointon_) June 25, 2021
"Wow, how far back?". He thought hard. Harder than he'd ever thought before. "1999". Right so, just over 20 years ago. I asked Jack what would he do. He replied 'Nothing. Go swimming.' I hate to say it but, time travel is wasted on the young.
Toby – 'Meet my mum as a baby'
— George Pointon (@GeorgePointon_) June 25, 2021
Netflix. Amazon. The TV channel that shows repeats of Robot Wars. Everyone please form an orderly queue because that is best idea for a film, I've ever heard! What a sweet and personal trip. Could you even imagine meeting your parents as children?
Emma – 'Take medicine back to old times'
— George Pointon (@GeorgePointon_) June 25, 2021
Floremma Nightingale. Selfless and kind. She'd save so many lives. However…I'm not sure anyone would believe a 6 year old walking round with a polio vaccine. Would you? Also where does Emma drop those things off? Who does she speak to?
Mikey – 'Breakfast'
— George Pointon (@GeorgePointon_) June 25, 2021
Normally I use this platform to dismantle Mikey's answers. Not today. He is staying at his Nana's and she made Chocolate Chip Pancakes this morning with a banana milkshake. I can only agree with him. Forgot seeing Plato or The Beatles. Nans pancakes please.
Ravi – 'See my Grandpa again'
— George Pointon (@GeorgePointon_) June 25, 2021
I'm not crying. It's my hay fever. I have to say, my heart melted. I didn't want to pry too much. He said they played marbles together. I'm sure he was a warm and wonderful man. I'd give anything for that. Time really is the most precious commodity.
Rosie – 'Go to the cinema to see Hotel Transylvania 2'
— George Pointon (@GeorgePointon_) June 25, 2021
Imagine going back and seeing iconic films opening weekends. Star Wars. Gone with the wind. Hotel Transylvania 2. These iconic films shaped the culture of western cinema and it's a headline on the course of human history.
