Any good April Fool's jokes?

[rolloverbeethoven]

I liked this one - but I wish it was for real!

one for an online game I play was good - but you’d only get it if you play the game! I can’t add the photo as it says it’s too large. It was basically a fake update leaked.

Flightradar (my husband’s is signed up to it) was showing Concorde flying from London to JFK.

I liked Roosters Square Potatoes ad and Cotton Traders big knickers. Old fashioned fun.

I laughed for way too long at this email from Wowcher.

nevermind, wont let me link it

Waffholes. The square holes from waffles. I would buy them

Hotel Chocolat - Chocolate scented paint.

One that was played on me and a lot of other commuters years ago.

Waiting for a tram in near horizontal rain and it was bloody freezing. Tram arrived commuters pile on, it's heaving. Tram starts. There's a part of the tram system where a left turn takes you into the city, a right turn takes you elsewhere.

Tram stops, this is not unusual. Driver comes over the intercom and tells us the tram has developed a fault and it will be turning right and we will have to disembark there. We're all seasoned commuters and know this stop has no shelter whatsoever and we are going to get wet through.

Cue much moaning about the tram system. Driver comes back on and tells us he appreciates that we've all been terribly inconvenienced on such a filthy day, and if we wished to complain we should write to Mr King, head of customer services. "That's Mr Joe King, ladies and gentlemen".

Made me smile, and everyone else I could see on the tram.

A company I know had a webinar on how to grow bananas in the uk

Ikea are doing a meatball flavoured (and coloured) lip balm.

I just saw a good one on Tiktok - a nail tech talking about how Marmite has the same chemical properties as nail gel - then proceeds to do her sister's nails! 😂

I fell for the Concorde / Flight Radar one!

I saw the ikea one.

A horse food company were launching a new feed with glitter in it so your horse poos glittery poo, I thought that was good.

I liked the one a few years ago where the national trust were adjusting stone henge for the clicks changing.

I would actually buy the Creme Egg goo and the Scottish tap water!

The Walkers one has proper messed with my head, though 😄

From Munster Vale’s instagram page

Toby Young pretended that Quality St is being rebranded Equality St to be more "woke".

A topical one from Heinz

Luckily got a screenshot earlier, was before 12 as well but wouldn't let me link as he's since changed it.

I wouldn't put it past our council to do that 😂

I'm curious now!

This is brilliant and I'd definitely buy the Creme Eggs goo sachets!

I read it at first as “Crocodile” instead of “Concorde” 🤣🤣🤣
I had tiring day today…

I completely fell for an ad in the local Facebook group for over 3’s to join a javelin throwing group in the local park. It even hash tagged our local hospital ED, which I clocked but I still didn’t realise it was a joke

Some wag stuck a notice on the fence of the the campsite at the bottom of the hill advertising it as a naturist campsite.

The joke is that it would only be warm enough on a couple of days a year to be naked.

There was a joke I played on my younger brother when we were children. One year, Easter Sunday was on April 1st, and I told him (before our parents were awake) that if he sat quietly in the garden, he might hear the Easter Bunny hiding the eggs; but the Bunny was shy and didn't want to be seen, so he had to be blindfolded, and not talk, or he'd frighten the Bunny away.

After I had blindfolded him, I sneaked back inside and left him there, keeping an eye on him from the window.😄It didn't occur to him to wonder what I was doing, and it was about fifteen minutes before he realised it was a trick.
