I had a friend who used to make things up all the time, and she once told me that the head mistress of our primary school lived in her office because one time "Her and her dad" had come in to the school at 4 o'clock in the morning (no explanation as to what they might be doing there) and saw Miss McEwan in her office, and my friend claimed that she said "What are you doing here?" and the teacher said "I live here."
I really hated it when my friend made stuff up. It made me wonder whether she was entirely sane.
