Lies Your Parents Told YouI once overheard a neighbour use the phrase "nig nog". I asked my father what it meant. As quick as a flash he said, "It's a type of biscuit. A bit like a hobnob." Can you beat this? BTW: We're keeping this thread open for an extra week as we're enjoying the stories so much.

Lie: "we're going to visit Granny"Truth : Aged six, I noticed mum packing lots of things into giant traverling case.
"What are you doing?"
"Packing your case.... We're going to visit Granny"
"Oh! Goody! I like it at Grannies."
after 4 hours in the car I couldn't help think it was taking longer to get there than usual.
"How long now?"
"Not long."
within the hour I was watching my parents through my tears, as they left me at Lisvane Boarding School in North Yourkshire.
