It’s okay Bammers. I guess there’s a lot of stuff that under-18 CCB didn’t care to ask about that nearly-40 CCB would quite like to know.

I don’t know much about my dad as he passed away when I was 5 and I think I’ve repressed the desire to know anything out of a feeling of guilt for upsetting the rest of my family that anytime he is mentioned it triggers a kind of anxiety attack in me. It’s a shame

anyway fun memories! hahah what is wrong with me I will literally talk about any old shit

Being on the beach in a very narrow bay in Majorca when I was 2 although it’s hard to know what is a real memory and what I’ve taken from photos.

Can definitely remember being at my grandads when I was 3 just before he died.

It was neat! I wasn’t scared, just intrigued, and my mother came and sat with me just in case.

I am ignorant of this Toby.

The baby in The Labyrinth. The start is an owl at his bedroom window.

Bit niche I suppose.

I have a story about my dog eating my poo and a story about my gran’s hair curlers. Both of which should be told in more detail than this. Remind me, if you will.

Aaahhh, ok. I don’t remember much of that movie. Sorry.

My only memory of my great-grandmothers is how excited they were while at my (maternal) grandmother’s house, watching tv.

Their excitement is understandable, though. When they were born, there was no indoor plumbing in their homes, no electricity, no cars… We were watching humans walking on the moon.

Falling down the stairs when I was 4 or 5. It was a Sunday, the papers had been delivered and I was taking the papers up to my dad. I think I tripped myself up and fell down the stairs.

I hope you didn’t hurt yourself too badly?

Being wheeled over a bridge with a train going underneath. Probably why I’m a train geek now but don’t tell anyone
