I used to think when someone was retired, he went straight in retirement home.
It's why, when my grandfather was in retirement, I said in front of all my family : "Oh, you will go to a retirement home !"
All my family heard me and laughed.
I didn't understand why and then they explained to me that retirement and retirement home are different. So my grandfather didn't go to a retirement home and I was relieved.

I used to think the postman's wife actually lived in the postbox, and if you sent something bad that she opened up and read, she would look through the slot and tell you off, so I was always too scared to go post letters on my own!
