Haha, I could see the footballers actually doing that. You can tell straight away that the US one is a joke.

Re: US to scrap dollar and join the euro

The best one so far today was just on GMTV, So-tox, lose half your body weight in 6 weeks by putting some wonder-cream in some socks.

http://www.gm.tv/index.cfm?articleid=28947

Actually I thought it could be a bit cruel for all those who are desperate to lose weight. Still funny though as it was played so seriously.

Re: US to scrap dollar and join the euro

Nope the best one was played in my mates office today (He just rang me) when half his team could not get in due to their swipe cards not working . Turns out he had a few people in on the prank and they told all the guys to pick up their P45s

Virgin Media's April Fools Joke

http://www.virginmedia.com/money/fea...p?vmsrc=vmhpld

I fell for it at first and then you get to the end where it says:
Quote:
The Prime Minister is scheduled to deliver his response to the US adoption of the euro at 12.00pm this afternoon.
and also it says "By Lol Faprio" rearrange that and you get "April Fool"

Ben
