No. Which is a bit annoying. But today we are actually talking about forgetting things and memory. So it's a good topic. It is. For today's podcast. Yes, and memory is your ability to remember things. So, Becca, do you have a good memory? Yeah. I usually do. This morning, not so much. Yes, I usually do have an all right memory, but it depends on what I'm trying to remember.

very well um but when it comes to tasks or things that I have to do for myself I must write them down or I will forget them I won't remember them I'm a very forgetful person um I yes everyone knows me to leave things in the house that I needed to bring or when I for example an umbrella if I take that out it will get lost a hundred percent um so I have a terrible memory

173.472 - 201.584

So you don't have a great memory, Georgie. A memory we use to talk about the ability to remember something. But we can also refer to things from the past, our memories from the past. So do you have any great memories? I've got lots of good memories. I think the best memory I have was when I was about eight years old. I went to a concert.

202.545 - 231.076

And I went to this concert with my dad, my best friend and her dad. And it was outside, a summer's day. It was kind of sunset time. We were both on our dad's shoulders, singing, dancing. And she has the exact same memory. So I know that it's I know that it's real. It's not fake. You didn't dream it. No, I didn't dream it. But that's one of my favourite memories. Yeah, what about you?

231.096 - 259.843

I remember my first ever kind of live music concert experience as well was around the time of November 5th. And here in the UK, we often go to see fireworks. And it was the first time seeing fireworks. Wow. So, yeah, and also my first time like seeing a band play on a stage. And yeah, it was a great experience.
