Re: Whats your first memory


I reckon I was very small. I was sat on a settee in my grandparents living room, the rest of the family was sat round the table having a meal, Bingy, the little terrier was on the settee with me and Brownie, a staffie-irish terrier crossbred was lying on the floor besides the settee. I know I couldn't get down of the settee by myself.

Next memory is of my grandfather sitting besides the fire - same room - with a rug over his knees, I went through the doorway and he called out "Rosie, come and sit on my knee." My grandpa died when I was just over 2.yrs.old. When I told my Mum I remembered him calling out "Rosie" to me she said I must have remembered and not imagined it because he was the only one who ever called me Rosie. Logoes

Re: Whats your first memory


Mines got to be when I was 18 months old we where on holiday in Alcudia Spain.
We had had our dinner (which I didn't eat. All I ever ate was chips, cheese or chocolate for my main meals). My brother had ate he's dinner so he was aloud a packet of crisps.
And I remember my mum saying ''No you cant have a packet of crisps because you didn't eat your dinner!'' So then I just stood there looking sad.

This was me on the same holiday (I remember quite a lot from that holiday).

Re: Whats your first memory


Earliest memory?
About 2 i would say..and was with my nana (not the infamous great gran) but my actual nana, my fathers mother, of whom i now have nothing to do with. She used to run dancing lessons in an old building that smelt of 'stock' plants...and i remember quite vividlly sitting on this little stool in dungarees (yes i know!) watching nana put these girls (probably about 15) through their paces..and remember thinking how boring it was!

Re: Whats your first memory


I think I must've been about 3. It was before my brother was born (I was 4 when that happened), and also at 4 my Dad changed his car and I know we were in the green Zephyr which had a bench seat in the front and a gear-change stick on the steering wheel. I was sat between my Mum and Dad in the middle of this bench seat.

Anyway it was when you could drive into Regents Park Zoo, and it was as we were coming out; coz I remember driving between some of the large cages. My Grandmother in the back kept giving me sweets and I threw up all over my Dad's car and my Mum's smart, pale grey suit (this was also when you dressed up to go out)!!
