*April Fools!*

Did I "get" anyone?

Do you have it in other countries?

Yes, the newspapers do it every year.

My newspaper said Carla Bruni-Sarkozy had been hired by the UK government to give a French stylish-makeover to UK with various TV chefs & other celebrities involved too.
This article was signed 'Avril de Poisson'

I found a new feature on my Gmail this morning: CustomTime. You can change the timestamp on up to 10 emails a year to be anything you want. Forgot to submit a report to your boss? Predate it so it looks like it came in on time!

I emailed the page to a few friends. Some of them took it seriously. I had to explain, and that just takes all the fun out of the joke.

There were some very good ones in papers here, now I can't remember them. My friend tried to fool me saying she's pregnant. Didn't fool me though, too many smileys on that text message :)

Any news item in the U.K. at the moment would make you think it was April Fools day. Plus the latest crap in the post.

I'm not twisted I'm just bitter.

There was something here in the papers about farmers giving cows chocolate to produce chocolate flavoured milk.
Ho hum you'd think our major newspaper could have done a bit better than THAT! Pffffffft.

Oh they'll have copied it from somewhere else, Kazzz. Journos (in UK any rate) are mostly lazy so-and-so's.
