Not just me!!My mother (who also posts under this name) told me that a haggis was a creature much like a large hedgehog/porcupine which must be captured carefully in nets and kept in the bath so they do not curl up and roll away. i only worked out it wasn't true a few years ago...
similarly, my grandad convinced a junior at his work that mohair came from animals called Mo's. he told him that there were pink ones and blue ones and yellow ones, and that people were trained especially to catch them and shear them. he believed him. Muppet.
