In an ad on the Gumtree website, a city woman said she needed someone to travel back in time with her.
If you’re not busy this weekend, and if your head is no bigger than 64cm, how about travelling back in time to June, 1983?
In an ad on the Gumtree website on Monday, a city woman said: “I have a functioning time machine (I assure you it works) and I need a second person to operate with me.”
She preferred a male traveller, but women up to doing some heavy lifting could apply.
They would leave on Friday, “handle some business” in the 1980s and return on Sunday.
The candidate had to be serious about time travel, with a head circumference no bigger than 64cm.
Calls to the number supplied went straight to the voicemail service belonging to a Natasha.
The ad had been removed by late Tuesday afternoon. - Cape Argus

@the facts, actually yes, it was published in the Cape Argus, and maybe if you read it in CT, it would make sense. But online? Besides, I'm sure the Cape Argus reports about stories from all over the word. Not just CT exclusively. A good article can stand on it's own, without needing the name of the newspaper or the silly picture that comes with it.

If you are going: buy Microsoft. Then, around 1997, dump it all and buy Apple.

I would love to go back to 1983. Little crime, fraud and corruption, things worked, you could shop downtown, there was a proper public transport system and far less lunatic black taxi drivers. You could actually go to a public hospital and receive good health treatment (did not have to take your own bedding), recreational areas, streets and pavements where clean and no unruly strikes. My children could receive a decent education at a public school without having to spend a fortune at a private school. There was school discipline. My immedaite family members would still be living here and not all around the world. I could go on and on. Oh nearly forgot, the All Blacks and Sprinboks where neck and neck in terms of the number of games they had won against one another. Now the All Blacks are leading by far in the winning stakes.

The only working time Machine is music. You play it, it make you mind live that moment again. So not supprising she need someone to fit her headphone and play 80's music. What were the hits then?

Sorry for "finger slip" below - H.G. Wells' short story is called THE TIME MACHINE.
Big D, wrote
Jokes aside, please allow me to make a serious recommendation. In 1895 (yes, 1895) H.G. Wells published his short story "The Rime Machine". Please have a readof it and you'll see just how it relates to precisely the same social conditions and upheaval we are witnessing world-wide today. We should really take note and be warned - history DOES repeat itself !

aaah the good old dats.... Single trip... I don't want to return and rather see to it that the old government widens the roads and introduce the gautrain, build better stadiums and improve the military arms 'cos the current govt is pretty useless... Then wait in my old age as to how the ANC tries to blame everything on the previous regime. Bloody agents
