Re: Practical Joker.
Some years ago when the last remaining daughter still lived at home, for an April's fool joke, I put every clock in the house forward one hour including her watch which she kept on her bedside table and her alarm clock of course.Cue following day, alarm goes off and she gets up and gets ready to go to work. Only when she was almost out of the door did her mum and me tell her about it. She thought that was the April Foll joke and didn't believe us until she rang the `Speaking Clock`
Narked wasn't the word.

Re: Practical Joker.
I had a friend who loved entering competitions. One she entered was for the banana marketing board.I typed her a very realistic looking letter with heading & everything from 'The Banana federation' saying she'd won 3rd prize in the competition.
The federation representative was coming to her house in person to give her the prize but a stipulation was that she had to hang a bunch of bananas in every window.
She was going to do it too - she never latched on that it was a joke..
