Not me but my sister....My sister came home from London for a weekend with a friend of hers to stay with me here in Devon.
Her friend is looking around my house, and comments on how I've got electricity and running water..
'yeeeesssss' says me, noticing my sister grinning.
Turns out she told her friend that most of Devon and Cornwall aren't connected to the electricity yet, nor have running water, and that people do their laundry in the river banging their clothes on rocks.
She was utterly convinced.
Didn't let on, of course..
