I have a dream.

[Poor-Alfie]

I have a strange, ambition, or dream. Hardly likely to happen but....imagine.

If in the future, space travel had become so cheap, that the average working man could afford to be shot into space.
Doctors could tell you when you were going to die.

now don't think about this too much.ie, forget about being too weak to take the G force or what ever....

But would it not be better to spend your last couple of days, weeks, or month of life looking back down on the earth. than looking at 4 walls ?
What an amazing thing to see before you die.

Totally mad, I know, but I would do it if at all possible.
Any better ideas or dreams that you harbour?

That wouldn't do for me, unless they introduce shoe shops & bars in space

[mccfluff]

i want to open the first space bar, incorporating a shoe, cake and bookstore

Would a chipshop do instead, mrs overall?

"The chipshop in space sells spaceship shaped chips". That should be in the tongue twister section, but it looks better here.

How much are these trips into space then?

[Poor-Alfie]

It doesn't matter Johnny, pay £10 per week if you like.
I just think it's better than the alternative. A fornights supply of food and booze, and a barbiturate cocktail, when you know it's time.
