"It's one thirteen AM, si- no, seventeenth of July, Nineteen ninety seven. I don't really know what I'm doing with this, I have stolen my brothers tape recorder and I am quite drunk but I'm just going to go with it. 

I met you one year ago now Tilly, and this past year has been the greatest time of my life. You have to me the most beautiful, kind and overall great person to be around and since I am going a way for a while, I wanted to leave something that'll tell you that. And when I get back in six months time, I want you to be just as perfect as you are now. No fuck it, I want you to be as perfect as you are for longer, for 10  years time? No, Forever. I don't think I have actually ever been able to get across how much I love you, and I don't think I ever will be able to.

Wait Wait Wait hold on, I don't have to give you this now, I can give you this longggg in the future, like a memory box sorta thing. If we are still together, no scrap that, of course we will be.. So hopefully future me will give you this in lets say, 10 years? What do I say to you in Ten years? things will be so different. 

ok, My name is Harry Pick, I am 15 years old, my favourite movie is StarWars, I know a few years old but hopefully number two will come out soon. I like my music, I like the Scorpions and Pink Floyd. My favourite song is Rock You Like A Hurricane, and my favourite thing to do is spend my time with you...

Wow, is that worth waiting until I am twenty five to say I like StarWars? Jesus I'll be twenty five. I'll be settling down, i'll have a job and a wife and a-. A wife? Ok I am very drunk, but if future me thinks it's nice he will use this, to propose to you Tilly. 

Since I met you I always thought you would be the one...

Tilly... Will you marry me?

Haha look at future me, down on one knee. How could you say no to that?"
