Add your First Memory in the comments below or write a story about it... My first memory is rather vague, but something about me + mud + my mother's freshly washed floors/carpet = a lot of bloody screaming! :) Brainzooming@SOML #myfirstmem - Going to hosp on a Sun morning after my finger was caught in a door that had been closed & locked. I was 3 & screaming. ShirleyAl@SOML My first memory. Falling into the farm reservoir aged 2.1/2 years.
