Lies Your Parents Told You
I 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.

Father Christmas
I of course was told about father christmasbut when i was about8or 9 I twigged that maybe it wasn'treal (that and the Easter bunny and the tooth fairy) the tooth fairy used to write letters to us,as did father christmas, I left a letter asking for the tooth fairy'sautograph once. back to the point. From that point forth every christmas/easter i would ask if it were all tru,are you sure,how does he get round the whole world (Rudolf has magic antlers that stop time if you didn't know) for about 5 years. When my brother was 12 she decided to tell us both the awful truth iguring we had both worked it out anyway. My brother cried none stop for three hours,stupid sod.
