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.

Oh and one of my mates....
was told by his parents that Wimbledon turned into France on Tuesday Nights at 8:30pm.
This all stemmed from the time they set out in the car from Richmond to go on holiday to France. Apparently my mate would nod off in the back of the car, nearing Wimbledon and not wake up until they had arrived. Needless to say it took a while to shake that one off, but the scars must have transferred, I guess...
.... or is it that I just don't want to go near Wimbledon after closing time?
