I received my wage slip today, I thought it was a joke. Sadly not.

I liked the You Tube one, where they turned the view upside down, then suggested you go to Australia to view it, as everything is upside down there, so you would be able to see it easier

Last years BBC's flying penguins was pretty good YouTube - Flying penguins

I used to live in a picturesque town called Haslemere - not far from Fiona H. Its a nice place with a sort 'village' feel about it.

On this day many years ago - the fire brigade went round every single road sign in the area and taped over the word 'Haslemere' with another sign saying 'Trumpton'

Cue many many confused people.

The fire brigade did of course remove these signs in due course!

I had forgotten about that! was very funny!

Of course penguins fly! (but in the real world they do so in the water).

I loved the one where the govenment nationaised a bank cos the boss made such a huge loss but let him keep his massive pension.

Chris Moyles Breakfast show on R1 had me crying with laughter in the car going to work.
Too long to explain, but did anyone else hear it?

I heard that one too. Amazing the number of people that fell for it, and listening to the playback of the callers was good.

One year our local paper(Loughborough Echo) Ran a story that due to a "Geological fault" Shepshed & Coalville were moving together so suggested that the "new" town could be called Coalshed.

I still think the all time best "April fool" was the 1977 Guardian San Serriffe article.

I've seen a new one, on YouTube, purporting to be about the Swiss cleaning bird poo off the mountains to keep them pretty for the tourists (and to prevent the slow erosion of the Matterhorn like tooth decay) VERY funny! Must be worth a search (I'll try to find it later, and post it if poss)
