What nonsense did you believe in as a kid?Ever thought that you could get flushed down the loo? That girls wee out their bottoms? Or that bumming means two men rubbing their bums together? Tell us about your childhood misconceptions. Thanks to Joefish for the suggestion.

I was still accepted into the choirI went to a infants school where we used to have regular assemblies. Every morning we would sit on the wooden floors and sing rote memorised hymns led on by the overly enthusiastic deputy head.
Not having had a paticularly religious upbringing I didn't quite understand some of the songs but just went along with it anyway. Even so, one particular song stood out to me as being particularly puzzling.
It started with a simple question: "Who built the Ark?"
but the reply of "No one No one!" seemed strangely subversive to me given the Anglican environment we were in.
I carried on singing that even after I learn't that Noah was a name. My version just seemed to fit better.
