This is a question Bullshit and Bullshitters

We've had questions about lies and liars in the past, but this time we're asking about the sort of fantasist who constantly claims they've got a helicopter in the garden or was "second onto the balcony at the Iranian Embassy siege". Tell us about the cobblers you've been told, or the complete lies you've come out with.

Thanks to dozer for the suggestion

I am assured this is true.
Some colleagues of mine have a friend who is having intimate relations with an Indian girl. Her family are, apparently, very traditional -- so she was married to a family friend in the usual arranged fashion.
However, her husband works away (oil rigs I thnk) and doesn't really mind what his wife does in his absence.
So, this woman finds a lover and they spend a great deal of time together, but have to be discrete for fear of family reprisals.
All goes well, but the woman becomes pregnant and is the mother of a very light-skinned baby, much lighter than would be expected for a child of two Asian parents.
You would expect the woman to take her maternity then return to work without ever taking her child into the office -- this mother was too proud though and had to show off her bundle of joy. So, she did what any normal person would do in the situation and applied fake tan to the baby.

Given how Asians hold up fair skin as the beauty ideal, the grandparents would have been too busy getting excited about the light skinned baby to work out what had happened...
