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?

I don't know if this counts as an urban myth......but for years I believed that Telford (a kind of arch nemesis rival town to Shrewsbury, where I live) had the highest teenage pregancy rate in the UK. I also believed that Shrewsbury has the largest amount of pubs per square mile than any other town in the UK.
That is until I started Uni, where, during numerous introductory conversations in Freshers week, I soon discovered that pretty much every other town / city in the country also shares these acolades. Altho thinking about it that second one could well be true!
