Old useless phone numbers and license plates you can remember

[Arthritic Toe]

I find this phenomenon intensely annoying. I can remember all sorts of useless rubbish including phone numbers, licence plates and song lyrics from before the age of about 30. Then is was as if the storage filled up, and I've not been able to retain a bloody thing since.
