2011: Living in Walthamstow with girlfriend [personal profile] arkady, daughter Freda, one of two teenagers and two cats. Working a job and thoroughly into the role of middle-aged suburban father.

2021: Living in recently-purchased East Grinstead religious compound with Arkady, who has entered "cult I founded" as "religion." Freda is in third year at Hogwarts and appears to be a natural Parseltongue. Everyone at school thinks she is wonderful and loves her even as she ruthlessly manipulates them as her robot meatpuppet minions. Younger formerly-teen's pop career has fallen over at the difficult fourth album. Older formerly-teen still playing Runescape. I have a side business selling sugared imaginary pain on the Internet and have learnt a second chord on guitar.

2031: Back in Melbourne because it's warmer now there's no Gulf Stream and Arkady can get away from unpleasable UK fan base and financial authorities. Freda is next Dark Lord but everyone's okay with that. The Singularity has happened, but our loving Artificial Intelligence keepers and protectors still don't understand her jokes. I still write Rocknerd and talk about records from forty years before. Carefully forgot second chord on guitar in case increased musicianship induces tolerance of Chris de Burgh. Older formerly-teen still playing Runescape.

You could even learn a third chord safely.

Increased musicianship does not lead to tolerance for Chris de Burgh, Huey Lewis & the News, Pink Floyd or any other artist that sucks.

Imagine... *Becoming* Chris de Bleurgh.

Melbourne in 2031... Make sure you keep up the payments and the servicing on the cyclone shelter and its smoke filtration, drinking-water-recovery, floodwater-exclusion, locust-repellent and refugee-detonation systems.

Also, old vinyl 33 1/3 albums make passable throwing weapons for decapitation at a safe distance. You may have cause to regret going digital and ditching your record collection.

2011: Living in Loudwater, working from home, occasionally going out for beer.

2021: Living in Fortress Loudwater ("last uncontaminated beer before the M25 Wall"). Hosting a machine or two for friends.

2031: Living in Ice Station Loudwater and running the last free datacentre from what used to be the swimming pool; only staying in operation because of lack of budget for snow tyres on police cars. Blamed for robot rebellion, with some justification.
