Unglamorous Uses Of A Time Machine

1. Taking a photo of yourself when nobody else is available.
2. Showing a modern day thug how hard he really is by giving him a ride on the Crystal Beach Cyclone.
3. Nipping back 30 minutes to go to the shop when you realise that you've forgotten to buy an essential ingredient and the recipe's already cooking.
4. Transport of water from your pond to the top of a turbine sluice in order to set up a temporal paradox that resembles perpetual motion, but actually escapes this impossibility by draining potential energy from the space-time continuum in your locality, in order to power your garden barbecue lights.
5. Returning to when you wrote unglamorous uses of a time machine, number 5 and erasing the end of it just to make people wond
6. Retrospectively stocking your beer fridge when a friend visits unexpectedly.
7. Washing your clothes when you are about to leave for an interview and only have a dirty shirt and 20 minutes to spare.
8. Ringing yourself up to make it look as if you have friends.
9. Finding out whether you snore.  OK, this is for single people only, but let's face it: if you've built a time machine, you're probably single.
10. Cheating at the local pub quiz.
11. Getting in that extra pint when closing time has arrived.
12. Capturing a slapstick moment for You've Been Framed when you had no camera at the time.
