A virus is going round called Housework. If you feel the need to start Housework. Stop immediately. This virus wipes out your social life. If you should come in contact with Housework, go straight to the nearest armchair as the only
antidote known is called Rest! Please forward this warning immediately to at least 6 friends. If you realize you do not have 6 friends, you are already infected.

7 year old: Mum what trick can I play on my class for April Fool’s Day?

Tasmiya: You could tell your teacher that for the holidays we are going to the moon?

7 year old: That’s a good one!

Tasmiya: Or you could tell all your classmates that Santa is in hospital.

10 year old: Mum, that’s a bit mean!

7 year old: But it does make sense that he would get hurt if he fell off his sleigh.

Tasmiya: Yes! He could have any number of broken bones. All the kids would be so worried that he wouldn’t be able to give them Christmas presents. They’d all be crying! HA!

10 year old and 7 year old: MUM!!
