A woman has posted an ad on Gumtree looking for an “open minded person” to use a time machine built in her garage.
A woman is advertising for a time traveling companion to share her first journey with the time machine she invented. The ad, which appeared on Gumtree, is reminiscent of Marty McFly from the movie Back to the Future. The character, played by Michael J Fox, became friends with Christopher Lloyd’s mad-haired Doc Brown as they took a souped-up DeLorean through time.
The woman has revealed in her ad that she had already sent mice through time but is unsure if they went forward in time or back.
The woman from Exminster in Devon, wrote: "For the past few months I have been working on a design for a time machine in my garage.
"So far I have been able to make mice disappear but I don't know if they are going back or forward in time?"
"I'm looking for a time travel partner, male or female who is open minded with a good sense of humour to accompany me on my first human transportation."
"Owner drivers would be a plus as the machine needs to be taken to a wide open space like a beach to prevent property damage."
"Happy to split fuel costs :-)"
"Looking forward to hearing from you soon".
