Urban LegendsI'm ashamed to admit it, but I fell for the "Bob Holness played the saxophone on Gerry Rafferty's Baker Street" story some years back. It just seemed so right. I still want it to be true.
What have you fallen for, or even better, what legends have you started?

Gullible girlfriendNot sure if this counts but...
We were out shopping one day and just to add to the monumental boredom my gf decides to ignore me totally while she tries to renew her mobile phone contract. She was struggling with the swathes of "press button one to report your phone stolen" rubbish; so I told her a brilliant lie:
If you say 'help' a voice recognition system will switch you through to the first available operator.
I then stood back and watched her as she stood standing in the centre of the high street saying "Help" repeatedly into her mobile phone. The looks she got were hilarious.
Luckily she saw the funny side.
