April Fool!

I was thinking of doing a spoof story for today.

But then yesterday, all the real ones were so bizarre and infuriating, I realised I just couldn't top real life!


So everything you see today is real. Sadly.

    I thought it was the 31st of March does that count, apart from me counting badly? The BBC News has dead princesses, pirates, zimmer frame skateboarders. Whatever happened to the good old days with the real stories like the Hitler Diaries in reliable broadsheets like The Sunday Times...

    That's so true. Just how sad has it all become?

    Half of what we hear would never have been possible 20 years ago and would indeed have been considered an April Fools Joke.

    No-one puts any effort into that sort of thing any more.

    "Just how sad has it all become?"

    Very! The news has made pretty depressing reading lately. And I don't think it's likely to get better, somehow.

    Oh dear. I didn't do very well...
