Re: Return of the Mighty Observations Thread
We had a neighbour in Saskatoon a few houses down and we could never remember his name. We settled on Steve? (the question mark at the end was key to pronunciation). The weird thing is that once we moved east, I've never forgotten that his name was Jason.

Re: Return of the Mighty Observations Thread
The only living thing in my neighborhood that I'm not related to whose name I know is a beagle named Lucy that lives about a block and a half away. I *think* her owner has brown hair and maybe a daughter? Don't quote me.
Doc and 101W: I'm the exact same with names. Even people whose names I know very well often elicit a struggle from me before it will come out. Everyone I know is named "hey there!" or "hello" or "what's up?"

I can't remember my own number without looking but I can tell you that when I lived in Summerville, SC from ages 8-11, my phone number was 803-875-5081.101Walterton wrote: ↑18 Jan 2018, 8:42pmHaha yes. I can’t remember 1985 to 1995 but I remember all my mates’ home phone numbers from when we were st school.

David Lloyd George was the inspiration for Schwarzenegger's Junior. He was out of office at the time though.101Walterton wrote: ↑18 Jan 2018, 9:24pmSo the Prime Minister is pregnant, well that must be a first.101Walterton wrote: ↑04 Aug 2017, 2:11amIs it ok to ask the leader of the Labour Party if she is planning to have children if she wins the election and therefore whilst she is Prime Minister.

TOTALLY.
And I too remember my childhood phone number ((303) 773-1515), but can't tell you what I had for breakfast this morning.

My dad is still using my childhood phone number. Wow. That thing is older than I am.

Re: Return of the Mighty Observations Thread
My Mum was too until recently (and one of those old fashion phones ) but the number grew considerably longer from when we first got it which was 3543. They added a 7 or 9 to all numbers after the first digit, then a few years later an 8 at the beginning. Even the area code grew from 3 to 5 digits. I lost track after that.
