1st April 2018 - Easter - it's no joke

Thought for the day:"Arnold Schwarzenegger's favourite holiday? "Have to love Easter, baby" he says"

So, Easter Monday falls on April Fool's Day

Condiment doyens Heinz also bring us news of a supposed new product, just in time for Easter.

Their new "chocolate mayonnaise" would be ideal spread on toast, added to cake batter, or paired with roast lamb, apparently.

In related news, I feel a little queasy.

Coca-Cola is to launch three new flavours of its sugar-free Zero brand, claims the Sunday Mirror.

The avocado, sourdough and charcoal flavoured soft drinks have been conceived to appeal to the "brunch-loving, superfood-snacking millenial", the newspaper says.

This one was back in 1974...

The Observer brings us the news that MPs have condemned plans to create official Leave and Remain emojis as “divisive and dangerous”.

The new characters – a Brexit bulldog clad in Union Jack hat and starry-eyed, beret-wearing EU supporter – are part of plans by an Italian tech firm to cash in on the political debate, the newspaper claims.

“Nobody who campaigned in the referendum wanted to give shadowy organisations the chance to exploit British voters,” the furious "MPs" are quoted as saying. “Brexit is far too serious a matter for foolish jokes.”

New Wetherspoons to opens

Along with the EU stating that they are to change all Eu passports to Dark Blue, Burger King producing a chocolate Whopper with Beef and cheese, new VR goggles for the referees in Russia for the world Cup and Prince Harry having a stag night in mid Wales...

A grand day  - off to Exmouth later
