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.

Lies about planesThe first time I flew in a plane, I saw a plane on the ground ahead of ours and asked my Dad what it was for: 'oh, that's used to give us a tow' he said.
I believed that for at least an hour until he revealed the truth.
