Now that you ask I remember stealing another kid's baseball card collection and hiding from him on the roof of my folk's garage. When his big brother got involved and came after me, I had to jump off of the roof to get away! I was only about 6 or 7 at the time and it was a very long way to the ground. His big brother caught me amd made me give the baseball cards back anyway.

This is a little strange, because nobody in my family thinks I could possibly remember it. I have a memory of being on a porch with a large dog. A man drives up in a truck, gets out and is carrying something toward where I am. The dog begins growling and barks loudly. My 'momma', or some adult figure appears and says something harshly to the dog, which moves away...I was told that we (the family) had a large German Shepherd when I was less than two years old. The dog did not like the "ice man" and would have to be removed when he came bringing ice. I have many other vague memories that I cannot put into a coherent scenario. But the memories are very real.

Bending down to reach for a doll when I was very little, accidentally knocking it under the couch, having to lie down to reach out for it... I can't get that memory out of my head for some reason. I remember those 3 seconds of my life like it was happening right now, but I don't remember anything before or after it. Not a nano-second before or after it. I remember the setting too, everything. Crazy ain't it?

This is from the Old Days in Canada... ... me walking in winter on a path with a fence to my left, piled with snow. A slender male hand from the other side of the fence shoving a pile of it onto my head and vanishing with a slight snicker. That was my father pulling one on me.

I have absolutely loads of random memories from my childhood. When I went to see my new born sister, there was a crushed coke can next to the parking space in the car park. I once cried and refused to go in my Grandma's car for no obvious reason. I remember insisting that my Great Grandma fed us raw chicken (at the time I couldn't distinguish between 'raw' and 'cold'). I once had a swimming teacher who couldn't swim herself. I once put a load of insect stickers on the side of my desk, which my Mum told me off for. The marks are still there to this day. In Year 4 (9 years old) I remember correcting a supply teacher in science. A Hippo is amphibious, not an amphibian, you nitwit.
