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.

The White WitchWhen we were kids there was this scary old woman that lived down the road that we thought was a witch - she was called Mrs White.
The thing is - it must have been a bit true because she would often march out of her house and literally sweep kids of her front drive with a witch style broomstick whie bellowing "get up your own end"
