Memory

[TWR]

Have you a good Memory?

[murraymints]

yes

[Zacs-Master]

Short term or long term?

[NoMercy]

I have got an absolutely photographic memory, particularly for anything numerical, chronological or sequential, but also for finer detail in some well known criminal cases, if I was interested in the case to begin with (Madeleine McCann springs to mind).

[ummmm]

Depends what it's about.

For instance...I remember something Andy Hughes said 5 years ago but I'm unlikely to know where I've put my purse.

[Garador]

What was the question?

[maggiebee]

Great memory for faces but names elude me until hours later.

[Arksided]

Long term yes, short term no.

[pusskin]

maggiebee. Snap. I'm great remembering faces from yrs ago, but names ...
I'm lost.

No TWR, post it notes are a life saver.

[Maydup]

No,I can't remember which thread I'm posting on half the time, let alone what I was supposed to be doing instead.

[baza]

If everyone wore post it notes on their foreheads then I would not have trouble remembering their names.

[Elina]

^ LOL!

[boxtops]

Not bad - they say as you age, you remember more things from longer ago. However, I have so much to try to keep tabs on, what with work and other activities, if I didn't write it down, it would be gone.

[janbee]

Yes, almost eidetic.
