April Fool or not, it's been a lovely day so far here. Took my coffee and a book out into the sunshine and dozed off Sometimes you just have to sit in the garden and not just work in it!
Not an April Fool. My OH does some 3D laser scanning, and Time Team asked the manufacturers of the laser thingy if they would do some for them. The archeological dig was well underway when he got there. He spent ages scanning a set of bones that had been discovered laying on top of a wall. He spent half an hour scanning a man lying on a slab trying to look like a medieval crusader effigy on a tomb. The man on the slab made it to 10 seconds on the edited programme. The really interesting bit was the bones on the wall which no one could explain, and was not mentioned in the programme. He did it as a freebie, on the understanding there would be a credit on the end of the programme. Of course, they got his name and the name of the company wrong. That will be the last freebie for a TV company. When it went out we got calls from all over, but it seems it was really popular in Australia. We got several emails, saying, was that really you? the name was wrong.

Happy April Fool's Day Archie
nah nah nah nah
Archie if you'd said they started work at 9.30am I'd have fallen for it
Fooled me too. I'm disappointed it wasn't for real.
I caught OH with an April Fool - I really wasn't keen on the bright purple paint our opposite neighbours' builder was painting their new fence with!!!
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
