    I told you a milliom times ....

    Along the lines of

    ''I told you a million times to stop exaggerating''

    a few years ago I ''adopted'' an old boy that lived on his own in a flat. Used to go do bits of shopping for him, record music he liked, cut his hair, that kinda thing.

    He was in the war ..... and loved talking about it. That, and the royal family. Now the thing is, when you listened to him, you would think he single handedly fought the germans back from every border in hand to hand combat

    Except .....

    he was actually a tailor

    He was based in Italy, and supervised a bevvy of Italian Beauties repairing army uniforms

    At one point in the war, his warehouse was used to house german pows. It was so cushy there they guarded themselves from escaping

    Got any legend versus truth stories ????

    Not sure if this is the same but......I've managed to scam my company, for almost the last 21 years, into believing that I actually know what I'm doing at work!
