Answer 1

I can remember back to when I was about 8 months old. but also have slight memories of when I was really little and couldnt even talk. Those memories are more like feelings than actual thoughts though !!

I remember my dad and my cousins playing scaletrix in a house we moved out of when I was 2yrs old.

I also remember climbing a ladder of a 2 storey extension when my dad was on the roof at the same house ( that gave him a freight )

I was a in the times newspaper from about 3 months old ( mum being a professional photographer )

I remember climbing out of my crib at the child minders and freeing all the other kids that couldnt climb out.

I remember getting my hand trapped in the hinge of the old red phone box's in gunnerside in Yorkshire. My mum didnt know which way to open or close it to get my little hand out with out cutting it off.

Also got my hand caught in the lock of the old carriages between charing cross and waterloo east. Again mum didnt want to open the door incase I fell out!!

But above all I remember seeing a clown and being so scared and disturbed by it that even to this day I cant stand them.

Answer 2

Not sure exactly how far back I can remember. I have flash memories that I am not sure how old I was. I believe they are from when I was in korea when I was 1 but sometimes those memories feel like a dream but when I look at my pictures that were sent to my adoptive parents while I was there i'm not so sure. I know I can remember when I was 4 and used to play tea party with another adopted korean girl at my parent's friend's house.
