Excellent. I do love a good April Fool but most are...disappointing. I did once manage to convince someone that Evel Knievel's brother Good Knievel was going to be down the beach that afternoon jumping 100 motorbikes in a double decker bus
Brilliant. I do believe that if you set yourself a bizarre constraint as a writer it can be enormously liberating. I used to do something like that penguin thing in the monthly features I wrote for a business magazine - not that word but others likewise weird. Mind you, nothing like as tough as the constraints Georges Perec set himself...

Yes, I'm very partial, but as you say, they have to be good ones. Speaking of Mr Knievel, have you seen this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ww-tZKWiVhc
I haven't but am very glad I now have! thank you

Thank you. Yes, it certainly adds a certain spice to it all.
