    Given to you, but, the wishes are only granted to help mankind and within your own lifetime, what would you wish for?
    Mine:
    Complete eradication of religion.
    Complete eradication of cancer.
    Complete eradication of all forms of dementia.

    What about swimming as a form of transport?
    Or a method of not drowning?

    A form of transport? Preposterous.

    Swimming if drowning would be acceptable once all other forms of staying afloat had been exhausted.

    I'd have just one wish.... kinda....

    For humanity to exist peacefully, without hatred or violence towards others while living in harmony with the needs of the planet and nature.

    If you used your first wish to wish for unlimited wishes, you wouldn't need the other two wishes.

    Swimming is only allowed in waters infested with great whites... and given we have to live in harmony, so can't kill things because of our own stupidity and/or inconvenience... they'd have to let nature take it's course! How's that?

    1) To open a deep coal mine on the outskirts of Windsor, with the proviso that only locals are employed
    2) To nationalise every utility company and make them all free to anybody on a poor wage
    3) To compulsorily seize every long-time empty property, refurbish them and rent them at fair prices to the homeless and needy

    Of great help to the local populace.
    1. Watch Sheffield Wednesday get deducted 12 points.
    2. Watch Sheffield Wednesday get relegated to the 3rd division.
    3. Watch Sheffield Wednesday struggle in said 3rd division against "teams like Morecambe".
    Oh and all of the above that you have suggested, including Guide Dogs and RNLI.
