Moony Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 I got told if I ate apple pips then an apple tree would grow in my stomach, I was about 5 at the time Also got the same ones about curly hair (I believed this so avoided crusts as I liked having straight hair ) and if you pulled a funny face and the wind changed directions my face would stay like that (although this one I never believed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jola Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 I used to be told there were crocodiles under my bed so if I got up in the night they would bite my legs. Then the usual eat your greens blah blah, eat your crusts blah blah. Now I tell my little girl it's the Christmas Elves that put up the decorations and take them down again, the Birthday Fairy brings her birthday presents and the usual Father Christmas is watching your behaviour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jezebel Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 I used to get told that the Sandman comes round everynight and throws sand in your eyes which is why there's all that crusty stuff in them when you wake up on a morning, so if I wasn't asleep when he came I'd get sand thrown in my eyes and it would hurt like b***ery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
