Once at a family gathering we were all watching TV when the Paint advert came on with the Sheepdog, I shouted out 'Look, look, its the Durex dog' For a while I wasn't sure why everyone was so amused, wasn't for a few years until I learnt how to read and realised it was Dulux! What a farce!
A childhood belief about adverts

don't ask.— Fred - i used to believe that the rag and bone man would come and take me away if i wasn't well behaved— ambrosez
- I used to think that if you ate cat food you would die. I found out it wasn't true
