So no, he does not remember. Also, if he does regenerate immediately upon entering his TARDIS as the scene seems to imply, then he doesn't have time to make any record of events to pass on to his future self while the memory of events lingers a bit.

That's how I, personally, am interpreting the otherwise cryptic line, "Oh yes: Course, suppose it makes sense". It's like the TARDIS is almost forcing the regeneration to happen right then so that he can't do anything to preserve the memory. But again, this last paragraph is pure speculation on my part.
