Ah yes - in my student days, some of my colleagues (not I, I hasten to add!) used to remove someone's furniture from their room to the fire escape. The date seemed irrelevant but the time was generally around 1130 pm.
This was broadcast again sometime in the seventies when I was a kid, I missed the bit when they said it was an April fools joke and believed spaghetti grew on trees for about two years!
One year ages ago we had a real bad frost on 1st April. OH was in shower he'd left engine running to defrost car windows, I opened the gates which you could see from upstairs and then asked what he'd done with car? He ran down & outside in bath towel, didn't for some reason find it funny
My Manager and still my friend was going on hols that evening, I rushed out of the office "late" for an appointment and walked back in slowly and sad looking and explained that I had reversed into her car. Won't say what she said after running down 2 flights of stairs. She always said I'd never catch her out again.
I did. We were on a holiday, we had taken carers and people with Dementia we were coming home on 1st. All the hols they had teased me about the size of my suitcase, so I enlisted my collegue who was a nurse and told the manager that the coach driver had fallen down the stairs carrying my suitcase and the nurse had phoned for an ambulance because he had broken his leg. Again I won't say what she said to me after she had oxygen
When I was sixteen, a long time ago, my cousin knew I fancied the butchers apprentice so he sent me for an elephant steak for his dog. What a fool, god rest him he always got me.

Everyone knows it grows in spaghetti squash.

A cosmos seedling has grown where I planted celery - Mother Nature got me this morning!!
Seeing as I'm a sales assistant i'm very glad nobody has ever done this to me!
