"No, everything is fine. I don't know what she means. Maybe she messaged the wrong person"
I was about to drive the 200 mile trip to my parents' place when a friend messaged me on Farcebook to tell me she'd heard the news and was devastated.
I had no idea what she meant, so I rang home to find out. The above is what they told me. It turned out something serious had happened but they didn't want me driving 200 miles with it on my mind.
They still feel dreadfully guilty about it, even though I've said I understand and I think they did the right thing.
Thats the biggest lie they've ever told me. |

Tea here, when I was 9 my parents let me have the afternoon of school and said we were going to the fun fair and zoo at Belle Vue.
Imagine my joy when the car diverted to the dentist, and I then went straight home having had 4 teeth out!!!!

"My Dad said guys can measure things accurately! Like fuck they can!

Don't ever let them measure up for a carpet they will order you a 16 foot carpet and you will find its 2 foot too big. |

I think I would have done the same as them to be honest. |

Cause they ALWAYS have to have spare "just in case", don't ever let them buy any wood , they always buy too much of that too, "just in case"  |

Me too, and I've told them that. They still feel awful for lying. |

I tend to buy more than I need when I buy timber too. Contingency is an important part of any project |

"My mother told me whenever I was naughty that the police would come and 'take my name and address'
Those words struck fear into my heart.Do you think kids now, would be scared?  "
Only until they were about 3 lol. Worked on me till I was at least 10, i thought it involved an overnight lockup in a cell. |

That my cat was given to my grandparents because we moved to a busy road.... Rather than he had to go because my brother has Cystic Fibrosis.
Oh and that mountain sheep and goat have 2 legs shorter than the others to make walking on hills easier!
I only found out about the both of them about 5 years ago! The second was easier to take than the first. |

If I was naughty, I'd be sent to the porridge home. Which I later found out to be my Nan's who I adored. Makes me wish I was more naughty.
My dad once told me a lie. Not sure whether I should share it. |

I think he meant certain items measured in inches, although even with those, men tend to be generous with their estimates |

If you laugh at someone's missfortune or physique you'll be like them.
Got your nose lol.
My grand dad used to ask me : Are you sour or filthy. I thought I had to chose one of the 2 options and I didn't know what filthy means but it sounded better than sour. So I always responded I am filthy and he laughs. Lol. Turned am a filthy fucker indeed.  |

"If I swallowed orange pips a tree would grow in my tum! "
there is an element of truth here there is a seed (can't remember which) that if inhaled instead of swallowed can grow into a shoot on your lungs |

If I kept putting my finger in my belly button and rubbing (it's a comfort thing) then my belly button would unravel and my insides would become outsides!!!!
Traumatised because I couldn't stop doing it  |

The lie was a bit rough, the loss of mother less so, strangely. I never knew her, so have no idea what it meant or means. Its like someone you have never met or spoken/written too. Like they never existed. Thanks anyway. |

It still must have been a shock for you. People sometimes think they are protecting you by not telling you the truth and sometimes it works but sometimes it doesn't. They will justify it to themselves but regardless it is a terrible thing to happen but good for you for moving on. The past is the past and you should not let it ruin your future xxx |
