top belief!
My sister and I used to pretend there was a giant skunk that followed the family car, floating along behind us like a giant Macy's Day float. His name was Saywer.
Whenever we went across the bridge between our part of town and West Lebanon, Sawyer, sinking like a giant nimbus cloud, would hover in mid-air to take a sip from the river.
During this dilemma we peered anxiously through the rearview windows, our kiddie chorus peeping the chant, "Hurry up! Hurry up!", while we waved with as much exertion that a 5-7 year old can muster.
He usually finished lapping by the time Mom or Dad quieted our chatter. Then Saywer rejoined our journey , and then and only then was it all right to go on home.
More than anything, we didn't want him to be left behind.

my friend and i used to talk to the screw in metal part of broken lightbulbs. we would ask them where they wanted to be and then we would kindly put them there. we did this for a year or more.
it made sense at the time but i do remember one of the last times i did it, the broken buld part said that it wanted to be on the roof of a garage and after i threw it up there i thought 'this is silly'
everyone has there own personal sun that follows them around.
I was so unpopular with girls when I was younger that I made up an imaginary girlfriend. Not just any girlfriend though: I told everyone I was going out with Carol Decker's sister (Carol Decker - singer with 80's band T'Pau). I called her Vicki. I am sad.
I use to believe that I had miniature people that lived n my pocket (affectionately called pocket people). I always thought their favorite thing to do was look out the car window while we were driving.

My brother was terrorised by an imaginary charecter called anorak doo-dah
I used to believe there was a magical invisible man in the sky that watched everything I did, and he loved me very much. Until I grew up and realized imaginary friends are just that--imaginary.
I used to have an imaginary friend called Deee [or Dean, maybe?] who I'd play with all the time. We used to be chased by men wearing bowler hats made entirly of shadows!?! Scary!
I used to believe that I had a younger brother called Damien. I even told my teacher that he would be starting soon at school, and she told my mum how pleased she was that little Damien was coming to the same school.
I had a whole load of imaginary friends called the "Gophins" who lived in the clouds. I later found out that my Czech grandad used to call me "Gophinec" (not spelt right!) which means "sweetheart" - so this must have been where I got the word "gophin" from. There was also "Anga" Gophin - named after Angela Rippon who read the news at the time. (There was "Issic" too - but not sure where he came from!)
I always thought my invisible friend was more intelligent than I was but his solutions to problems were nearly always wrong.
