admira Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 When I was a kid, my Dad told me that the button on the end of the handbrake was the ejector seat. When I repeated that informarion to him as a mid-teenager, he said ‘don’t be such an idiot, who told you that’. I replied ‘you did’. I believed him for years! ramit, DarkFruitsRam7, Mucker1884 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1of4 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Not any nonsense I grew up believing. While eating Mulligatawny soup, I convinced a work mate that a mulligatawny was a bird similar to a Grouse that originated from the foot hills of the Himalayas. And tasted of curry due to it's diet mainly consisting of curry leaves which grew in abundance on the hillsides.

Wolfie Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 21 hours ago, Stive Pesley said: As a small child of about 5 I vividly remember discovering that my own "little stive" sometimes went all big in the bath, and my mum telling me to stop touching it because "if you keep doing that, it will fall off" I didn't dare go near it again until I was about 13 - at which point I thought "sod it, if it falls off, it falls of - at least I'll have fun finding out" And did it?. I've been waiting soooooo long for someone to tell me for sure Stive Pesley and Highgate 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comrade 86 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 That politicians served the electorate, British bobbies were the best coppers on the planet and the NHS was the envy of the Western world.

Sufferingfool Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Didn’t have a car growing up but my uncle did. One night he took me for a drive and I got to sit in the front seat. When we went down unlit roads he showed me how he could turn the cats eyes on and off! I was dead impressed but also slightly bemused how this would affect other drivers. Took me many years to work out what was happening 🙄 NottsRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
