1) To be back in 1988-89, when I've accidentaly discovered the Hobbit on my bookshelf, to stand before this bookshelf taking out books at random to stumble upon TH and decide to read it.

2) To be back in 1993, walking in the book-market beneath the "Dry Bridge" in Tbilisi, to see The Ruturn of The King I've been waiting for two years and have money on me to buy it

3) To go to Oxford in 1937, just after publication of the Hobbit, and accidentaly make acquaintance of Tolkien in the Eagle and Child (and become friends, of course)
