Time Warp

What would you enjoy about the 19th Century? I think the thing I'd most enjoy would be is, assuming that I was lucky enough, or unlucky enough, take your pick really, to be in the countryside, because obviously there was a lot more of it back then, I'd enjoy the fresh air and the summer hay and things like that.

What would I miss? All the high technology, all my keyboards and my samplers. Mind you, it's all very well to say in hindsight, but I'd try to invent some sort of mechanical piano device or something. But then, I wouldn't know how to do that, because that technology wasn't developed back then.
