April Fools, 1st Of April...Again ?

Have you been caught out, yet again ?

We all look forward to it, imagining all kinds of tricks we could surprise our loved ones with and yet how often do we get caught ourselves. Ah, what comes around goes around. It's not as if it was a big secret. All over the media there are hints and even props for sale, to aid and abet you !

Luckily the Easter weekend put a damper on all those April Fools tricks conceived by your colleagues. Is there some form of etiquette about fooling your fellow workers the day
before or after ? Going to work tomorrow might be a lot of fun for some and slightly worrying for others !

Newspapers that are worth their salt, will print the ' red herring ' usually on the front page. Of course nowadays the stories in Newspapers are at times so outrageously silly, that it gets harder and harder to spot the true April Fools story ! ( Reading the Huffington Post should be fun as they always do everything with pizzaz and style ).

My mum has been caught out for as long as I can remember.
A horrified scream of " Oh ..., a dog / cat / mouse poohed in the kitchen ", gets her out of bed every year and in record time too. Well done Albert.

Bob got me very nicely earlier. He went to pour himself coffee in the kitchen and let out a high-pitched scream..." Oh my God, there is a big rat in the kitchen " !
Seriously, I only fell for it because he screamed like a girl ! Aah Bob, don't forget that April Fools lasts for 12 hours. He, He, He.
