Title: Whats Your Earliest Memory As A Child
Post by: Mr Skrunts on 10 August 2009, 20:24:50
As above, How old were you.

My memory is very vague for my early childhood, but the few bits I can remeber I feel as if it happended last week.

I can go back to about 4 years old and had a little trike, I used the garden path as the  road and the grass where it was burnt after a bonfire as my carpark.


Plus when we stayed with my uncle in Aldershot he says I used to get up his nose by asking "Why" evey time he told me something.

That reminds me on a visit back to england, I'd have been about 4 again, visiting my great grannies sweet shop in Birmingham. A real old fashioned place that smelled like every sweet I've ever dreamed of, with glass jars stretching high up on shelves that seemed to stretch to the sky. Now that's a great memory!

We got warned with a flat piece of wood with a handle at one end plus it had "Mr Whaco" printed on it.  We learnt to behave very quickly when that came out, coz it hurt soo much when it landed.

4 years old,my dads car was parked outside the house on the  hill we lived on.I got in ,pretended I was driving then let the hand brake off and the car rolled off down the hill.My mum had been watching out of the window and when she saw the car move she legged it out of the house and ran after the car.She grabbed me by the hair,dunno if she thought that would stop the car or if she was trying to pull me out.I carried on driving regardless,but a neighnour who was ib his garden saw what was happening and managed get half in the car and pull the handbrake on and stop the car.just as well as it was a T junction at the bottom of the hill with a wall at the other side of the road. ::)
cant remember what type of car it was but it was a big black one. :)

few from age 3-4

finding a mouse on top of the fridge, noone believed me at 1st, but it was at my eye height!  never forget watching it there.

'playing' in the car, ive always liked sticking things in holes, and at this tender age it was my finger in the cigarette lighter socket, I bet the screams were blood curdling.

next door neighbours much older kids digging a rather big hole in the garden, with rooms off it!  the roof of the rooms was about 6ft down! fair play to em!

and yes, another one belted with those bloody wooden scholl sandles  ;D

A few

Riding my trike

Travelling on a train with not Pullman gangways as going from coach to coach was weird (only worked it out a lot later) - must have been under 4 then.

Counting to 20.

Being lifted from behind some vertical bars.
