Today, I remembered some pretty astonishing things from my childhood....
.... the sounds of my primary school library, the feel of the books in my hand, my library book bag, my book list, the after school "waiting room"... the green carpet....
Memories that I didn't know I had retained, but were given back to me using a process that I was quite sceptical about initially. It really is amazing how your memories are processed in a way where they disappear for over twenty years, but upon select triggers deliberately provided to you to get these memories back, all of a sudden a rush of them begin - certain smells, certain colours, sounds, sights....
Simply amazing....

Yes! And the older one gets, the more often these occur!
