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.

now I come to think of it...when i was about 7 or 8 my oldest sister got a perm and my middle sister got her hair dyed. Well I wanted my hair permed but my mum told me that I was too young 'the hairdresser won't perm your hair because she says it'll all fall out' so i decided i'd dye it a different colour...my mum says 'they'd dye your hair if it was blonde ot brown but because it's red it'll just turn green...and fall out' I believed this untill i was about 15. I guess she was just trying to stop my hair getting all messed up. mY mum also used to tell me that thunder was god moving his furniture and rain was god watering his garden
