April Fool Stories.

Kate Moss serenading Simon Cowell in a karaoke bar in Islington to launch her new career ! Just spotted online Daily Mail

I haven’t seen any on TV this morning but do remember the Spaghetti Tree of years ago.

There is a new character coming to East Enders. It's Honey's twin sister - Jo King.

So far on Instagram I have seen.. Ant & Dec, John Lewis, Boden, Gardener World..

This is one that I'd buy 🤣

I’ve only just bought the Mail but haven’t had a chance to read it yet.

There is usually a clue in the name of the journalist reporting a ‘story’ on the first of April, as the name is an acronym of April fool!

Maybe the idea that you can have a criminal record for speaking the truth is an April fool?
Our gym said it was creating 5 minutes only bookings for the sauna because too many people were using it to dry off after a swim.

John Lewis adverts showed a new wearable duvet you could wear to try the bed duvets out.

The second one was that gravy was going to be served in paper cups on the roadside at the Manchester marathon.

I once told my Higher English class that the sqa had decided on a last minute assessment. I had arranged the seats in rows rather than my usual groups. I gave them out a paper with a series of command. The first was read the last statement which said April Fool, now fold your arms.Quite a few didn't do that and worked through question by question and couldn't understand why others were laughing. I gave them five minutes then told the truth. I knew there was no-one who would be genuinely anxious otherwise I wouldn't have done it

surely it won't get through the House of Lords.. this is the case in states of America where people can be incarcerated in prison for being homeless.. it just doesn't bear thinking about.. The sooner we get Sunak out the better

Last week a new mural was finished near Cleethorpes station and there were quite a few comments along the lines of 'how long before it's spoiled'.

Saw a Pan Am Concord taking off from an aircraft carrier on Facebook.

I can’t help thinking that one of the puzzles in today’s Times is an April Fool - the polygon, that I do every day, where you have to make words out of given letters.

Normally it’s (scores), say 11 or 12 average, 15/16 good, 20/21 very good, 30+ excellent.

Today’s is 1, average, 2 good, 3 very good, 4 excellent.
Got to be a spoof, hasn’t it?

A couple from the police....

There's an article in the i: Prince Harry to cash in on cryptoboom with own currency. 'April Loof, of the campaigning group Crypto Dominance is Something We All Oppose (Codswallop), said "This really sounds like some sort of joke." '
