My mother was always making up fairy-stories, but this is the only one I remember believing!
We had a large bush outside our house and it was round shaped and you could only see inside if you pulled the twings apart. One night during a thunderstorm my mother was comforting me and she said that it was just a fairy party up in the clouds, being curious I demanded to know where these fairies lived, "In the bush in the front garden," I was told.
For *years* I tiptoed past that bush every morning so as not to wake them up on my way to school.
It did have one good effect though - I've never been scared of Thunderstorms.
