I was told several things by my sadistic parents before a flight to Florida.
When I was 8 they told me that there were no toilets on the plane so I would have to hold it in for the 9 hours for the Trans-Atlantic flight.
They also told me that we would all have to pedal to get the plane off the ground.
And again when I was 11 they told me that after the pilot set the course he would sleep for the whole journey and hope everything went ok.
And to top it all off I believed them all three times.
