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.

When I Was a Bonny Wee Ladof about 4 or 5, I found one of Ann Summers finest products in my mums bedside drawer. When I asked her what it was, she told me that it was a sort of practice microphone. Imagine my suprise as, when I started to put the thing closer to my mouth to sing into it, she leapt across the room and snatched it out of my hands telling me that it was a grown ups microphone ! I dont know who was more embarassed, her at the time, or me about 5 years later when I realised what it was....
