At the age of 2-3, I asked my brother where rain comes from. He said God turns on taps in the sky. I imagined a bunch of taps (like our garden tap) and a huge hand turning each one on, one at a time. I was very impressed. (i think I was very gullible as a toddler, but weren't we all?)

Remember the icecream truck plying "greensleves???" as it did the streets.
Dad told me it only played when its' supply had run out.

I thought the difference between 2 stroke Versus 4 stroke mowers was that 2 strokes had 2 blades and 4 stroke mowers had 4 blades. Seemed plausible at the time.

I believed that movies were made just by a whole lot of people turning up and being spontaneous.

Filming just started. No planning.

I've seen movies that look JUST LIKE THAT.

My Grandfather always told me you should never eat the fat on a sandpiper's leg because it was poisonous.

For some stupid reason, i believed him.

My drunk Uncle told us kids one stormy Christmas night that 'thunder' was in fact 'Santa rolling his pumpkins' up in the sky
We all believed him LOL
