Does anybody have any reminders of things, good or bad?

I'm talking about things that trigger certain emotions/feelings or thoughts on things, or just remind you of someone/something.

Could be a song, a scar, a place..anything.

I'm just interested to know.

Well i have load of things that bring back memories, most of which are about my dad, his favourite songs etc also when i was kid as a family we use to always go on holiday to a little village just outside Skegness, i take my kids there now, with my mum and remember all the things i use to do there with my Dad.

Going back to Whitby brings back memories, the sort that in one instance would make you smile at the happy times you had there and in another moment to the sorrow of not having those times to enjoy again

two things that reming me of my bestest friend Deborah (we've been best friends for 34 years)

parma violets - we loved them

avon perfume in the form of a roll on...like lip gloss .... because we used to smoke and put the roll on perfume on our lips to disguise the smell - didnt stop us getting caught though

Funny agricultural/horticultural smells remind me of my dad and my uncle.

I love the smell of warm, moist compost!

Yes, loads of things, too many to list.

All right then, the smell of a certain perfume always brings back memories of a certain person I was very much in love with many years ago who was taken away from me before her time. There's one.

The song Close To Me, by the Cure.

It was playing the very first time I saw my first love.
(aaaaawwwwwwwwww)

Every time I hear that song, it reminds me of how I felt when I first saw her.

I think that she probably feels the same way too.

(love at first sight DOES exist!!!!!)

That song will always be my favourite song.

PS. Now puke

(She used to say that too)

F**k it, I can't be arsed...

This reminds me of a similar conversation I had with someone in the real world

I actually like this thread of Lauras ...........

I've got a scar just below my right knee and to the left a bit and down ... got it climbing trees with deborah, beside the burn, at the quarry ... god i'm tough !!!!!!

Have a scar on my leg from being tired and clumsy one morning, walking past the computer desk and cutting my leg open off of the metal as the plastic thing to prevent these kinds of things had disappeared.

Meat loaf reminds me of my summer holidays off of school when I was much, much younger, singing at the top of my lungs in the car wherever we went.

The TV show Friends reminds me of the time we lived in our old house, again much younger, and we'd join in with the intro and clapping involved. Sliders also reminds me of similar times.

Yep, got loads.

'Everything I do, I do it for you' by Bryan Adams sends me nuts.

It was played at my brother's first wedding and also at my best mate's funeral. *God rest his soul* Was one of his favourite songs. *Weeps*
