    Sorry, what was the question again?

  • Actual memories being what you can genuinely recall, and referred memories which are what others (family or friends) have told you and you then remember them as your own. People often mix them up

I can remember a very dramatic event when i was 3 years old,

still haunts me sometimes.

Wish i could forget those memories.

Broadoak Infants School, Ashton-under-Lyne, 5th Sept 1952. New headmistress, Miss Tegg started the same day. I was almost 5.

First teacher Miss Ashton, and my first taste of cocoa.

But can you still remember all the names of the kids who started school with you that day? Be honest now.

My first memory was before school it was when I was around 2 months old laying in a pram with the hood up, l remember because I didn't like it.

So you can remember when you were around two months old. I think your telling porkies.

How would one so young know what brylcream was ? Let alone its name ?  Just curious.

It tells you hair waves, if it wasn't for that, I may not have known, but as my hair has always been straight, I have never had to use any cream.????

Well think what you like, my mother confirmed my age and was surprised herself with me remembering that far back in my life.

You can remember important incident and things involving yourself in many respects.

Research has proven that and from memory of  psychology studies I did as young as 4 week old baby can remember.

I could sit down right now and write down almost all the names of the kids I started school with.

I am still waiting for someone to come on here who can do the same.

That's very interesting, I hope to hear some more of that in this topic.

Me too, my sister was at the other end making a noise...????

I remember this terrible pressure around my head, and shortly thereafter screaming my head off because some idiot smacked my bottom. Don't know what was happening but it was certainly traumatic.  

Both memories from about 4-5 years old.

Being violently ill on pumpkin soup. Have hated pumpkin ever since. A pity, because my Thai GF informs me pumpkin is very good for the libido. I'll just have to struggle along without it.

Hanging out with some older kids who persuaded a girl my age to take her knickers off. I remember wondering why she looked very different to me.

The friends I have now are important to me. Can't remember a single friend from my childhood, perhaps I didn't have any.

I don't remember being circumsized

That's right, and if you read the OP, I told of something I remember at about three years old, definitely 

not older.

When i was 2 we got our first dog, i still remember it like yesterday to see all those puppies. We brought one home in the shoppingbag in the bus and had it for 14 years.

I remember the breaking news on the wireless that The Keiser surrendered

I have very distinct memories from when I was about 16-18 months of age. We had moved from Washington, D.C. to West Palm Beach, Florida by car. We arrived at night and stayed in a motel on Broadway. I have detailed memories of the motel, what kind of a front door it had (jalousie), the time of day that we arrived (night), how the interior was laid out to a degree, where the kitchen was, the traffic on the road, which side of the road the motel was on. My parents totally freaked out when I happened to mention these memories in my teens.

 

I don't remember the names of anyone I went to school with until late high school, not from having a bad memory, but for totally not giving a shiit. ????

I can remember when I was about 1 yr old, my 2 elder brothers used to piss the bed, I learned to swim before I could walk.

4 years old running home from kindergarten with a bleeding gash on my forehead and the blood drying and closing my eyes.  My mother failed to come to the hospital and a kind lady comforting me till the pain stopped.  

Grade 1-6 - easy peasy- Can name all my classmates in the room with me

I was educated on School of the Air-just me and my dog

When my father asked which end of the bed I wanted to sleep, I told him, the shallow one!

I was on a church trip with my two brothers and granny and grandad, who were heavily involved with the church, to Knaresborough .
The radio was on as we returned and all of a sudden the adults on the bus burst into loud cheers.
I was totally oblivious but apparently we had won the World Cup, I was 4 years old.
