The Friday Five: April

[smallhobbit]

This week's thefridayfive questions:

1. how did april fool's day start? non-serious answers only.
At one minute past midnight.

2. ever pranked anyone?
Occasionally, I can do a reasonable deadpan face.  But hopefully people who I know will appreciate the joke.

3. what's something foolish you've done lately?
Wandered round thinking everything looked rather blurry, then remembered I'd taken my glasses off.

4. what's made you laugh this week?
The report of a conversation between my son and my mother, who is now bed-ridden in her care home.  Warning for dodgy humour, which is normal in our family, but may not be in yours.
Son: I'll come and see you again next week, but let me know if you're no longer here.  Or else leave a fiver for my wasted petrol.
Mother: I hear fuel prices have gone up.
Son: Make it a tenner then.

5. what does april bring in your part of the world?
April should bring lots of spring flowers, although currently it's bringing freezing temperatures at night.  April should also bring rain (April showers), but then so do most months.
