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.

HaggisI was told that haggis lived on the top of mountains, with 2 legs bigger then the other, so they can only go round the mountain one way. And that they'd sometimes fall down and have to go round an even lower bit for ever and ever too. Though the explanation is preferable to what haggis REALLY is.
And I though Thunder was clouds too until 3rd year physics.
