Re: April Fools Day

BBC Radio Leeds have done the best one I've heard about so far:

The started broadcasting this morning exactly as they would on a Monday :lol:

There were also rumours about Brian Lara's cricket bat failing a random test, Umpires issued with vernier guages measured it as being wider than the regulation 4.25". His record scored have been expunged from the books.

Nothing done to me today............ mainly cause I haven't told the kids about April Fool's Day yet :lol:

Re: April Fools Day

How come you guys stayed in? Isn't the weather nice today? I've just came in from my ritual sunday blast. Been out from around 9am (Usually go out 7ish but overslept a little and then finished off reading Superbike magazine on the loo :)). Missed watching World SuperBike. Can't have all I guess.

Well this is what i got at work from head honcho.

Good Morning.......

This is very difficult letter to write.....here goes.....

For some considerable time I have been wrestling with my conscience over XXXXX’s involvement with paparazzi photography.

Of late I have been re-assessing a number of company activities and whilst of course paparazzi photography can be profitable and generate much needed revenues, the continual stalking of celebrities and the privacy issues have given me reason to re-consider our involvement in this area of the media.

I’m very uncomfortable with the constant hounding of people like Pete Doherty, Courteney Love, Dirk Tourette and Paris Hilton - for crying out loud, they may be wealthy celebrities who don’t want for anything in life, but don’t they deserve their personal space as well ?

I’ve been taking a more spiritual view of our activities lately and I am, with immediate effect, ceasing all involvement with paparazzi photography. It is a disgusting, abhorrent, despicable and loathsome activity which only attracts the very dregs of society.

I for one wish to sleep at night and won’t soil my otherwise impeccable reputation by being associated with those who wish to continue in this dubious area of activity.

Our change of policy will of course impact on the structure of XXXXX. I am committed to retaining all of our workforce and will implement a re-training programme for those of you who wish to stay at XXXXX but in a different capacity.

For those of you who may wish to discuss the effects of this, I shall make myself available all day tomorrow.

My parents told me my bike had been stolen from the garage. I wasn't best pleased when i found out they were only jokeing :(
