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.

My budgie flew awayand then next day when I got home from school there was an identical one in his old cage, to which my parents told me "oh, he must have come back!" Broke my heart when I finally twigged that it wasn't the same one.
Although to be fair I was the little sod who let the first budgie out in the first place.
