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.

before I came alongMy grandad was in the air force, and because of this my mum lived in Cyprus for a few years when she was about 14-17.
After my folks told me about this, my sister (8 years older than me) told me that "before you were born", she and mum and dad lived in cyprus in a big luxurious mansion with servants and palm trees, that sort of thing.
I grew up in cumbria, on the side of a mountain, in the rain. Boo-hoo.
