    Don't fret, you're not fat or deformed..the right cut of jeans for you won't become available for another 5 years. Leave your hair alone. Save.

    Sit down over a pint and have frank chat about whats ahead and how to prepare. Aim to cheat where possible.

    I'd tell him - It's "leave", you idiot! "Make like a tree, and leave." You sound like a damn fool when you say it wrong.

    It would have been 1991. I'd have told me to save a few bob, buy as much property as possible and sell it all in 2001, buy gold with all the proceeds and ride out the storm until 2010, get into the stock markets up until about now, then hold position until further notice.

    Hindsight is a wonderful thing!
    I'll be telling my kids to watch out for this ****!!!

    Take your first pay packet from the part time job, around ten quid (10.08.1992). Walk across the road to Ladbrokes with results.

    Repeat around 1997 Istabraq for the Champion Hurdle at SP Lord Gyllene for the National Doubled up with Mr Mulligan for the Cheltenham Gold Cup. 1,100/1 for 90 quid.

    Wait till 18th birthday, cash down payment on house.

    Broad brimmed hat and long sleeves would be better advice to give your 16 year old self as sunscreen contains chemicals which can cause cancer ;)

    Don't start smoking
    Break up with him
    Captain Morgan will NEVER be your friend
    The friends you have now are backstabbers

    Bertie Ahern isn't, never was, and never will be, the president of Ireland YOU IDIOT.
