Biking up a massive hill when I was 8 and now it seems tiny but still very steep!!
Playing footie with my mates every day come rain shine or even the dreaded nighttime!
TV - Wak-a-Day
Film - Breakfast Club
Friendship Bracelets
Marmalade Sarnies
And Hugs off my Mom

kiddie memories
great thread.
i remember my four dogs (3 beagles and a bullmastiff).
playing pooh sticks with my dad on a green, iron bridge in a park in the middle of north london.
permanent knee injuries from playing (and falling on concrete).
remote controls with wires.
wearing my coat by the hood and running against the wind.
the ultimate thrill of playing knockdown ginger on your own doorstep with neighbours who 'know who your parents are!'.
cb radio (at home and in my dad's series two land rover).
tv: willo the wisp
film: blues brothers
food: penny sweets and proper crisps that only cost 18p a bag.
turns out my memory is better than i give it credit for

Running faster than a motor bike.
Cycling toward the sun for ages when it was setting cause I was sure I'd be able to see it better cause I thought it was so beautifull (I got in trouble when I eventually got home cause I wasn't allowed play outside after dark) Parents
My dog killing my cat and how upset I was.
Climbing trees.
Climbing on the roof of my house.
My little sister
how she get so big?
I'll leave it there.
Thanks for the groovy thread

I remember the smell of my grandmother's house,
the taste of clover honey right off the spoon,
being chased by my great grandad's geese,
my stepdad grabbing my by the overall straps just as I slid by over a cliff (obviously, he saved me
),
my first plane ride and all the free soda I wanted,
getting to hold my baby sister for the first time,
five hours of saturday morning cartoons followed by American Bandstand.
tv: Captain Kangaroo and Wild Kingdom
movies: Sound of Music (my first trip to the drive-in)
cartoons: Bugs Bunny!!
music: Peter, Paul and Mary (Puff the Magic Dragon - still makes me tear up)
Yeah, I know I'm old

Finding a lost racing pigeon in the garden, when staying at my grandmothers house. (very swallows and amazons)
The muppets. Hiding behind the sofa when watching Dr Who or Scooby Doo.
The first time I tried cherry coke, accompanied by chinese take-away (a big adventure).
being totally unable to climb trees (oh, wait, that still happens)
Rolling down the hills at Old Mill Primary School (lets see if anyone else went there ). Running through the back ways to school because we slammed the car door and broke it when mum was giving us a lift.
Snow. Mum turning up to pick me, my sister and a friend of hers up from school with a sled, and dragging us all the way home. I didn't find out until I was grown up that it was because the neighbour who was supposed to be picking us up only picked up her kids in the car. Mum didn't want us walking cos there had been some kind of weather warning.
Being so short I had to stand on something to post letters in the big red post box outside the post office.
Visiting my aunt and uncle in Stoke-on-Trent, they lived by a canal and had a dog called Rosie.

Christmas' at my grans, LOVE EM
Running across the playgroud pretending I could fly
Kiss chase, what a game

Toy? Sylvanian families and my comforter

i remember the 16hour flight out to papua new ginuea, walking round the local market place in port morsby and hating to have to wear shoes (still prefer bare feet) petting a wild deer drinking from a swimming pool (still have the photo).
the neon lights in hong kong and being sooo scared when we landed there ( there was high rise flats either side of the run way and i thought we would hit one).

i remember getting bitten by a turkey on a primary school trip to a farm.
I remember going outside in the dark to play and thinking how brave i was for about ten minutes then getting scared.
Coming home from school to the smell of my mum baking cakes and cookies.
Whenever Magic Roundabout was on my mum used to make me a cup of hot chocolate, still whenever i hear the theme tune i want hot chocolate!
My mum reading me and my brother The Moomins at bedtime.
My dad leaving and moving half way around the world.
My stepdad making me and my brother a treehouse while we ate hotdogs in the garden in summertime.
Going for a ride on my stepdads harley when i was 6
My nanny teaching me to juggle while a parrot sat on my shoulder.
Going to see my nanny and her boyfriend's puppet show.
Going to the circus for the first time and feeling sick after so much candyfloss.

Going to the circus for the first time and feeling sick after so much candyfloss.
Aim high and you'll know your limits, aim low and you'll never know how high you could have climbed.

I remember:
My sisters and I playing "superman", running around the house with blankets tied to our necks.
The classic - my sisters getting drunk at age 3 & 4 (they thought the wine was water). They slept the whole day, after repeatingly falling all over the place
Sitting on the beach building sand castles and talking to the locals
Visiting Zimbabwe and seeing how beautiful that country really was (before being destroyed by Mugabe)
My grandad & how he always used to hug me and say "God bless" before I went to bed.
My mom carrying me to the table every morning for breakfast (I miss that!)
T.V: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Film: The Goonies
Food: Chinese Bow ties covered in syrup (everyone munched them)

I remember my going round my Aunts house and watching cartoons with my cousins when I was about 8.
The ice cream van always used to come round the estate and we would all run out and buy one of those screw ball ice creams, with the bubble gum at the bottom. Was the best thing ever, I was only alowed to eat gum at my aunts as my Mum used to gag when she saw it and so I was never allowed to eat it in the house.
