Things you believed as a child?

I remember thinking that cats were female dogs.

I remember wondering why the sun and the moon never crashed into each other.

I believed 1. a4 was the best way to get your rook into the game.

That a monster covered in bandages lived in the dark cupboard under the attic stairs.

I believed ~ or at least claimed to believe ~ that I had been born on the ferry between Holyhead and Dun Laoghaire because in my mind - or perhaps I wanted other people's minds to think - it accounted for my cognitive dissonance - as a 7 year old in his fifth primary school - regarding my combination of Irishness and Britishness, and northerness and southerness.

I thought women went for men with a good sense of humour.

I believed the man who said he was a policeman who knew where we lived when he chased us off a building site. 😨

I believed in Superman.

I really did.

I believed this lad who said he had a lego motor, but when we went round his house he said it was too big to bring out through the front door and show us!
