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.

THE ONE ABOUT THE ICE CREAM VANS...
I've seen it so many times on here now that if and when I ever do have kids, I'll just tell them this. It doesn't mean he's run out of Ice Cream, he's got loads of the stuff. What the chimes do mean is that HE'S A SCROUNGING GIT WHO USES THAT CHEAP RECORDING OF GREENSLEEVES TO GET YOU KIDS TO PESTER THEIR PARENTS INTO GIVING THEM MONEY!!! AND YOU'VE JUST HAD YOUR TEA!! AND IT'S JANUARY, IT'S BLOODY SNOWING OUTSIDE, AND YOU WANT ICE CREAM?? EH?
See, don't lie to your kids, tell them the truth and maybe they will see the EVIL of the ice-cream van and his greensleeves, playing all day and all night. Get a real job, git. If you want to drive a van all day, see if DHL are recruiting.
Rant over. Mine's a 99.....
