Your favourite April Fools

I thought that the BBC spaghetti joke dated back to the sixties,but it's 1957 !
It was created by a guy called De Jaeger and done on a budget of £100 .
I was small when I watched it and my Grandma said that it was nonsense .
My mother said that it must be true or it wouldn't be on the BBC !

We once sewed up the fly of my late OH's underpants and listened and laughed when he went to the loo!!

I remember the one from Esther Ranzons Lirpa Loof It was a good one and I remember her saying at the end it spells April Fool. I loved her programmes.

See my post on Infomans thread!

There was one years back with news of intention to build a formula one racing circuit round the park that surrounds Arthur's Seat in Edinburgh. That got a lot of outraged letters to local papers.

I almost fell for this one yesterday:
Did you know that Greenlanders have collected 4 billion kroner to buy Trump?

Anybody remember Esther Ranzon's, coupled with, I think, David Attenborough's April fool's joke?
I think it entailed the possible extinction of a rare animal:
The Lirpa Loof...such fun!

Yes, I remember the Lirpa Loof. It had purple poo! Along with the spaghetti trees they are my favourites.
