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 ?

grumppa, yes, I remember San Serife and the car stickers you could get. Far and away, the best in my view.
