It has to be a joke, there’s nothing else on the BBC website that
l looks like an April Fool.

I heard someone talking about the German cannabis on five live this morning so maybe that's real.

Just had an amusing email from Leon announcing their Aioli Toothpaste launch. 🦷😀

Germany decriminalising was announced weeks ago, it just comes into effect today. Good for them!

The moon was playing a trick early this morning: only a half moon. I thought that the day after Easter, it should be pretty near a full moon.

A video of Kate moss and Simon Cowell singing karaoke. Lookalikes I’m sure.

RefreshingCandour · 01/04/2024 08:39

My Facebook bird groups are full of them. Mash ups of robins and kingfishers, golden pheasants and eagles shitting on brides. It’s a bit try hard.

The Telegraph had an article on recolonising the dodo by Cambridge University but I can't be certain that's an AF

Morrisons gravy donuts advert on Facebook is good... thought to myself "Really?... its not Apri.... oh, it is"

A local Estate Agents signed up with Netflix for a spin off. Instead of Selling Sunset it will be called Selling Swansea.

The Telegraph has a story about Harry Kane not being allowed to play for England because he’s now a resident of Germany.

Decolonising, not recolonising!

The latter almost certainly would be an April fool, the former is happening all over the place.
