Sitting with my Grandad after school in front of the fire and eating a Mars bar. He cut the Mars Bar into slices like a little loaf of bread. I was the only Grandchild at the time, and lived just down the road from him and my Nan. He had MS and was basicly housebound. He died when I was 10. It's funny what we remember. To this day Mars Bar is still my first choice in chocolate bars! Deb

What is your one childhood memory that really sticks in your mind!!! Mine is my parents divorce when I was 7, my brother was 3 and I remember it being awful. I`m a right Daddy`s girl and we didn`t see him for ages. Felt like we were torn although my parents never badmouthed the other infront of us!!! This memory I believe has made me wary of trusting people!!!Not entirley sure why though!
