Got in this morning and one of the guy said he had hear that the garage down the road 1/2 mile at noon today was switching from Shell to BP. Anyway he stated that all the dfuel had to go by noon and they were selling it for £0.24/ltr to get empty them ready to change over.

SO one guy grabbed his keys and vanished we went to the window and saw him drive in the direction of the garage. 10 mins later he returned (we stuck an A4 bit of paper to his PC screen April fools) having filled up he asked for the special price to which the garage knew nothing about it. He told us this story on his return and we said it must be the other garage further down the road.... the penny didnt sink no matter how obvious we made it anyway we had to point out there was a message on his desk only then did sharpest tool in the box get it....

Made me LOL to near tears. Brillient.

My better half is an ACA Chartered Accountant, she asked the other day 'How did the people from Google fly the helicopter so low?'

After spitting out my coffee in hysterics I had to explain it was a car with a camera on the roof, she thought I was lying.

A girl in our office drew up a written warning for a guy on my team who is always late, she foolishly took today off and wanted me to txt her the result

I decided on a double bluff, I text her and told her it had gone horribly wrong, he hadn't clicked and had gone into HR ranting and raving

She immediately clocked I was winding her up.......at this point I got our Team Leader and Manager to text her confirming it had gone awfully wrong and she was directly responsible for an employee walking out and could they ring her biggrin

I have just told her the truth, I couldn't ruin her whole day off smile

Didn't do it on April fools day but I came into work one day and it was absolutley chucking it down with rain. I work with a guy who is absolutley obsessed with cleaning and polishing his Alfa GT and he parks it at the far end of the car park to minimise the chance of someone parking next to him. I stuck my head round his door and said "What happened to the car? You must be gutted."
"What do you mean? he replied?
"The big scratch down the side!"
At this point he jumped up and was off out into the car park to check his car. When he came back he was soaked to the skin and very pissed off biggrin

I once got talking to a lady about holidays in France and at one point she says "You know what I don't understand, how they got the water out of the channel tunnel"
I almost died laughing. I didn't get to speak to her again after that...
