Enjoy yourself to the full as it all gets fairly serious later on in life, will still be good fun though but with a load more responsibilities

My son's 15 and what I mostly seem to say to him is
1) do your homework
2) tidy your room
3) don't spend money as soon as you get it
4) you can have seconds but thirds is pushing it a bit
5) do some exercise you lazy git. No, an xbox controller does not count as exercise.
6) put a coat on you'll get cold/wetI can't think of anything I'd want to add if I was talking ot me except;
1) don't wait until you're 35 to start riding mtb's.

Enjoy life before having children.
Or from the other side...Don't spend all your money enjoying life then wish you had settled down to have children a little earlier.

Don't drink quite so much whiskey on the day you finish for your GCSEs. It won't end well.

Hard one.
Part of me thinks i'd say don't get into drugs, but I had such as incredible time when I was 16 or 17 in 1990 and 1991 raving and up to my mid twenties clubbing that I'd probably say
"OK, have a good time now, but when you turn 23 stop it all and go to uni, because you'll never relive these times!"

Don't get into debt. Racked up big debts during late teens & early twenties. A total noose around my neck until I finally cleared it about 5 years ago.

1) Stop trying so hard.
2) Sit down with your teachers and work with them, not against them. You might actually pass exams this way. Try and establish exactly what's being asked of you instead of being a smartarse.
3) Do not go out with Trudy Kelly.
4) Learn to be more assertive.Posted 3 months ago # -

You are not immortal. No really, you're not!
And to add to Wartons drugs point - as with most things in life, its all about quality, not quantity

when you have a problem with drugs and the rave culture the solution to this problem is not to move to Holland to get away from it all ..seriously I did this what an idiot.

Just because your GCSE’s are easy don’t do F all at collage and then end up at a rubbish uni. Watch less MTV and do more work you lazy spotty geek.

That youth is wasted on the young, dont start smoking ( dumb decision of mine to look cool , it failed),start riding a bike, drink in moderation, ( another dumb decision that would bite me in the arse) dont do debt ( see booze for that) enjoy the fact that you are fitter than a butchers dog , (I would kill for a fraction of fitness I had back then).
Dont leave the best job you ever had ( again booze, killed promotion stone dead, got me booted off a field squadron job) ride more..

(1) You've probably got 60 years left. Make the most of them.
(2) Money is nice, but it doesn't make you happy. having sod-all money does make you miserable though
(3) Find someone nice to spend your life with. Boy/girl is irrelevant, but make them happy, and make sure they do the same for you.
(4) Experiment sexually. Do drugs if you feel like it.
(5) Learn to ski MUCH SOONER - I only started at the age of 27. Big mistake.
(6) Travel widely.

When Elaine at uni asks you back to hers for a drink after work go, don't say you have to be up early in the morning.
That whilst you may be able to blast out grade A's in your CGSE's with no revision and no effort you can't do the same with your A-levels and you certainly can't do the same with a degree.
Splitting up with your first real girl friend cleanly is much better than dragging it on for a year whilst cheating on her constantly.
Move out of home sooner, save some money and get yourself sorted.

Spend more time talking with your Dad, he has an amazing secret past life that is well worth finding out about.
Drink less,
avoid Cathy, unless you want a good kicking off her Dad,
avoid a policemans daughter
marry Tree, when she asks you
dont sit in the back of a picup truck on a night out
spend more time with Martin & Simon.
Stop the urge to climb things at raves
Last one, if you think you can make that oil barrel and scafolding plank jump on your BMX, its not a jump, its a seesaw, you muppet!

Get used to girls looking straight through you: you just dont exist to them you grumpy geek.
but, the schadenfreude of the pay-off that good grades give you in later life is well worth the egghead name-calling at school.
anyone can read, but maths rules if you want to be successful

While crazy women are 'interesting' and 'fun' they do not make for good long term relationship material.
Stop eating crap you bloater!
