I remember when radio Caroline DJ Mike Ahern joined radio 4BC Brisbane in the mid 1970s. He did a morning show on 1st April where he announced a new gizmo where smells could be sent via radio waves. He fried onions and brewed coffee and asked listeners to phone in saying which smell came through the strongest.
You’d be amazed how many could smell the onions!

Thought it might be fun to go through the April fools jokes in the media today. Has anyone else seen any to share ?
Sorry I can't do the link but the "I" paper has a good one.
"Cornwall makes language test compulsory for tourists. Visitors seeking to swap foreign beaches for the delights of Cornwall this summer are to be asked to take a compulsory Cornish language test as a means of limiting the vast numbers expected to head to the county " !!! Complete with testing booths on the A30 and a special app to test your proficiency.
Any others spotted ?
