1/ My late husband still with us, alive and well
2/ Covid19 to disappear
3/ Go back to 2016 and stop Cameron ever mentioning Brexit and referendums and/-or if he must, add the immortal words on of "60/40" % then we wouldn't be in this mess now

"Back to the Future" anyone ?

Health and Happiness for everyone, everywhere. To speak to my mum one more time. She died when I was twenty and I've missed her everyday since.

I read a sci-fi story once, about that very question
The guy said (and I m probably paraphrasing)
I wish that, with no change at all in me, to become the most wretched and unhappy person in the world.
I can't remember if it was a genie or the devil offering the wish, but he couldn't cope with the ultimate unselfish wish

Less worry for children who are trying so hard to stay on top of school work. So much to catch up on.

Health and happiness for my family.

End of Covid - End of wars.
If only peace and harmony could prevail.

An end to Covid.
An end to man made climate change.
A return to sensible democracy and equality for all.

Good health for my family.

An end to Covid.

A kinder, less selfish society.

My first wish would be for unlimited wishes.?If not...

Since three wishes can go wrong in so many ways, I would be very cautious.
1. wish....no more viruses of any kind.
2.wish....for 50,000,000 to appear in my bank account that was actually legally mine to spend ( you have to be specific with Genie wishes!) Then I could improve a lot of lives with family, friends and charities, whilst not asking for too much.
3.wish...That I became magically four inches taller and a stone lighter in weight ( without losing any organs etc!)?

Well, today I wish someone could find the flipping leak in our roof.

Then for the decieators to arrive the very next day.

And an end to Covid of course.
