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 lies lies...When I was 7 my Dad told me that the Ferrari he kept hidden in a shed on my uncles farm would be mine when I was 18. So I took all my mates there and pulled the tarpaulin away to reveal a reliant Robin. He also told me that the new cat he'd bought was called Murder, my Mum corrected him on that one before I could put my foot in it. I had to lie to my mates little girl (age 5) when she asked why I had some Xmas presents for her, I told her that I was best mates with Santa and that because he didn't know if she was going to be at her Mum's or her dad's he'd asked me to deliver the presents specially! and she believed me!
