Jane Austen (though the dress, shoes and bonnet would be difficult) just to tell her how famous she’d become)

John Keats, he’d notice scenery I didn’t and write a beautiful poem I couldn’t.

Alan Bennett and Victoria Wood for laughs and similar accent to mine.

George Michael for music.

Also the regular folks like me I meet on the way and connect with and talk with and never forget.

I think my music choice would be Bruce Dickinson. I am not particularly a Maiden fan but I attended a gig of theirs lately and he (and they) was incredible! He s a pilot too so maybe he could fly me home!

I am assuming language would not be an issue and communication would not be a problem.

Moses. Because I would never have to worry about wet feet.

Interesting choice for a religious pilgrimage. 30 days of debating whether or not g-d exists would probably do me in.

My late paternal grandfather - had a 4th grade education in Ireland before working his passage out of Cobh as a shipbuilder's apprentice. Smartest person I ever have met and I have known captains of industry. I would like to know how he pre-figured out so much of current affairs with such a humble origin. (He passed in '75)

C. S. Lewis - I have some questions for him...

James Howard Kunstler - an American essayist of articulate and gentle demeanor with weighty opinions on the existing structure of life in USA. Were I to score including him with the first two? Then I would not have to say a word, but I would have the joy of listening.
