:23 "I remember sitting on the front doorstep singing with my mum. I must have been about two." :36 "Near where I grew up, there was a playground, a lake and elevated train tracks. Rather than playing we decided to go exploring. Walking along the side of the lake, we found a long and small tunnel. In the dark we saw a burst of flames! We thought it was a dragon and ran away. My friend and I egged each other on to go and see the dragon and snuck towards it, closer and closer we got. The darkness parted and it was a welder doing his job. How silly did we feel!" I hope this helps. The idiomatic phase "to egg on" or "to be egged on" means to urge or encourage (someone) to do something that is usually foolish or dangerous. It isn't used in daily conversation very often as an adult, but it is useful to know. Another example may be "I didn't want to try to jump over the mud puddle, but my friends kept egging me on and that's why I'm all wet and muddy."
