I remeber eating my tea on my knees and watching Flash Gordon- i must of only been about 2/3 as we lived in this tiny little cottage at Houghton Bottoms and moved out wheni had just turned three. My sister sat down on my Dads tea, as he had left it on the sofa- i just remeber how sad i felt that she was being told off. The Flash Gordon story was quite scary too, about a cave or something.

I have quite a good long-term memory, yet my short-term is terrible. Sometimes i walk into a room and can't remeber what i went in for. Worse, sometimes i phone someone and can't remeber who it is i have rang so its a bit of a suprise when their voice kicks in lol.

Earliest I can remember is when my dad took me to the new house that we were going to live in, while he sorted a few things out with the then owner. Or it might have been climbing up stairs to see what was happening in the bathroom (in the house I was born in):S

I'd have been about 2 or 3 I think:)

I can understand that........my earliest memory is of lying in my big coach built pram looking out at the world i can still remember the pattern of the inside of the hood, the feeling that comes with the memory is lovely, being really warm and feeling really safe and secure!
 
I can remember my sisters christening so I guess I was just under 2 or summat ?? I remember I got an orange Delorean corgi car from me Nan... or it might've been a Lambie... had butterfly wing doors anyhoos....

I can also remember the mobile above me crib... so that was possibly before me sis's christening... it was toy soldiers btw :D

My long term memory would astound n alarm people... :S But it has given me an idea for a thread :D

Hey snap on the lazy eye front- Jonno had one as well. I had to wear National health glasses too as my mum was broke, mine were sky blue. I had a plaster over my 'good eye' to make the other muscle work harder in the bad eye. I had that for years, just when i got rid of the gigs i got double train track braces, had thoose for 3 bastard years- the braces overlapped with loverly acne lol too. God i was a right stunna me as a kid- many said i should have been a child model:cool: .
