In this thread, post messages to yourself in a year's time, and then in a year, you come back and reply to it to update your past self on how you're getting on.
Dear Biffo 2012,
Hope the course is going well, only another five years to go and you'll be a professor! Hope you're still not panicking about the Mayan Calendar end of the world thing.
Love,
Biffo
Dear Biffo 2011,
Nice to hear from you! The course is going very well thanks - 2nd year now, all exams passed. Still a bit panicky about the whole Mayan Calendar end of the world thing though.
If we're all still around next year, I'll let you know how we're all getting on and whether I've found the job of my dreams.
Your sat on your own, on medication, drinking vodka. I hope you have managed to get out of this 'rut' you feel you are stuck in. I hope your alive. Take care. Learn to love yourself.
Here's what I said on 2/10/2012 regarding the little girl missing in Wales. The thread closed as I posted in response to a DSer.
"Sadly she is already dead but will not be found until tomorrow. She is not in water and is clothed but has no shoes on.
The person who abducted her is male and not related. The vehicle was not white or grey but cream/beige with several black seats. She will be found within 5 miles of her home."
I really, really hope I am wrong about this though.
You'll know by now if the kid is yours, and if it was, then I hope your attempts to turn him into a professional footballer are on track (and you have learnt how to kick a ball with your left foot, but no biggie if you haven't, I have little faith).
Hello! I hope you are well and that the operations went ok. You should be off crutches by now, DO NOT fall back into the rut that we've been stuck in. I hope the wee one is still being just the best wee ginge on the planet. Have we got that ring on our finger yet?
I'm due my email from 2011 me in a month or so. I always completely forget what I wrote. I hope life is better now than it was at the time of writing, that always cheers me up a bit, but then again it's sad to read myself feeling down.
So how has the last year been treating you? Have you got a new job yet? How did that trip to Bulgaria go? If you can, get back to me with any tips on where I'll go wrong in the year ahead, although as I'm sure you'll know it will probably be like water off a duck's back. Still, no harm in trying though eh?
Love,
N_R of 2011.
P.S: Congratulations on still being alive.
Dear NR 2011,
How nice of you to get in touch. The past year has gone pretty well actually, no new job, but a new step in your education. That's right, I'm at uni now. I bet you'd never thought you'd say those words eh?
The trip to Bulgaria never happened, but I think you knew it wasn't going to deep down anyway. My only advice for the 12 months ahead of you is DON'T leave your HTC in your bag in the pool changing rooms unattended. Listen to your better judgement and hand it in to a member of staff, or make sure you take some change with you for a locker. Just use your head FFS.
Lots of love,
NR 2012.
P.S. Thanks for your kindness, if I will remember I will be in touch in another year to let you know I'm still here.
Your sat on your own, on medication, drinking vodka. I hope you have managed to get out of this 'rut' you feel you are stuck in. I hope your alive. Take care. Learn to love yourself.
Good to hear from you, lad.
You're going to have a heck of a year, believe me.
And maybe not everything is tickety boo (I bet you love that phrase dontchya?) but you'll get somewhere good through it all.
Oh, watch out for a guy with the dog down on the beach in Brighton - just walk back to the pier and be thankful!
I hope by now you've grown a spine, sorted your depression out, sorted your drinking out, although you are much better that the moment, and you have decided to get a life for yourself.
Your son is almost 18, he is old enough to fend for himself, so you don't have to tollerate the abuse, swearing and occasional violence anymore, and by 2013 I hope you've learn't that.
If you haven't learn't that you may have to kick yourself up the arse and learn to smell the coffee!!!

Dogs on Brighton beach... who'da thunk it eh? Some things just aren't meant to change!
Say yes to much much more, you've been a bit of a recluse in the last yr since losing your job. Youve made a start since dubai and are getting out and about more but you could so so much more than you do. Youre starting with your uncles business in the new year only 3 days a week but its a start. In the words of NEYO "learn to love yourself" give yourself a break and get out there and live again.
You can't actually read this message as you have long since been perma'd for yet another derogatory comment aimed at one of the many trolls/sockpuppets here on DS. Probably the smelly aspergers dude or that one who calls everyone and their mother a racist. Unlucky.
Kind regards,

(good thread OP)

I really, really hope I am wrong about this though.
I really hope you have learnt your lesson and not had any more drunken incidents involving falling off the toilet etc
Hope the social work training has got off to a good start and I would like to think you have managed to find a nice man and settle down finally.
Kids are still a credit to you despite having a fcukwit for a mother
Lots of love

I'm pretty sure that will be relevant to my future self.
Ha I don't even remember posting this
Dear me in 2013, win the lottery and f**k off to the canaries you useless noob.
How's that?
