It would be 30th June 2006. It actually was hubby's birthday but it was more importantly the day before Mum died, she wasn't poorly, she died suddenly on the 1st July. So if I could re-live one more day it would have been that one, I would have scived off work and made such a fuss of her... taken her out and made her feel so special. As it was... 30th June 2006 was the day before we were supposed to be off on holiday for a 2 week camping trip, stressed at work for weeks before and stressed at home packing and not much fun for hubby either on his birthday. Poor Mum only got moans and groans the day before she died..... I wish I could change all that. I'm just glad that we both said I love you before bed time. I saw her in the morning but I was so busy we didn't speak much at all. If only I had known we had so little time left. Still missing you terribly Mum. Love you so much always Gaynor xxx

I would re-live my wedding day. And do everything differently. At least we're having a blessing in 6 yrs, hopefully with all the works. My gran won't be there to see it, but she saw the 1st one, thankfully.

Sad one sorry folks ,wish I could have been with Mum when she passed away ,but could not get a flight at any price-however the lady in the bed opposite told my aunt that 5 children and a black and white collie were around her bed when she went-what a gift that lady had! The collie was Jip-and I have a photo of all 6 kids with him xx I so wish I could have been there that day,just to hold her hand and say goodbye.

Oh Catherine, hugs xx but at least your last day together was a happy one, no cross words to regret or anything like that. When my son was born, he was whisked away to another hospital while I was still under the anaesthetic and I didn't see him until he was 10 days old, so I wouldn't relive the day he was born, just the day I got him back. I was speechless, I couldn't believe that this tiny little scrap in my arms was mine. Mandy :)

Mine would have to be the 26th October 1996- I was 9 months pregnant and spent the most wonderful day with my mum, she came round with cream cakes, I put my feet up and she did some ironing for me-she talked to her grandaughter in my tummy. We had such a laugh. She left on that Friday late afternoon to go home-and I never saw her again-that was 10yrs ago, I would love to have that day with her again... catherine xx

Mine would be the day I married my wife, 01/03/69. One because I had known her since she was 11 year's old, I was 13. She moved into the road where I lived and we became friend's, she was so pretty. There were other boy's that we went around with and I did not expect her to ever choose me over other's to become her boyfriend. We have been together ever since and I know I have been blessed with a wonderful wife.

The day I would like to relive again is from my childhood when I was 9 it was christmas and all my family were together. My mum, dad, nan, grampy, 2 brothers and my sister. It was that christmas that I had my charm bracelet (which I still have) in a jewelry box. It was the last christmas we all had together before my dad passed away. Now there is only me and 1 of my brothers still here and I would love to be there with them all again. Jackiexx

Its a hard one but this was lovely When oldest daughter was old enough to understand Father Christmas, and seeing her face on christmas morning when she discovered what Santa had left her.
