1st April 2019 - April Fools? Nope the world is just as crazy as ever

Thought for the day: "Today is the only day of the year that people read what they see critically and question it - or at least until lunchtime - Happy April 1st"
"I never remember being absent minded"


Sad to say - I have not seen many good April Fools scams this morning - there is the one about the Menai Bridge being stolen, but most suggest that there will be a referendum or a resignation or a general election- which people have been saying every day for the last three months or three years!

Conspiracy theories are already circulating that this is a plot by Westminster to create a hard border between Anglesey, the EU and mainland UK, in a bizarre twist before the Prime Minister attempts to bring her ‘significantly changed’ Brexit Deal before parliament for a 4th time.
Others believe a group known as ‘The Druids of Mon’ are responsible for the act, as part of their ongoing campaign to make Anglesey an independent state, which includes a plan to remove the two existing bridges. The Druids are yet to claim any responsibility for disappearance of the bridge.
Detectives, however, fear it may be the work of a sophisticated group of American criminals who have been targeting historical artefacts and monuments and then selling them on the ‘dark web’ for astronomical amounts.
A temporary crossing has already been established over the Menai Strait, which is a collaboration between Anglesey and Gwynedd Councils.
A spokesperson for the council said: “We are shocked to hear the news about Menai Bridge, this is unprecedented.
“A temporary structure has already been put in place, which is the best we can do under the circumstances, although we hope the original bridge can be found and retuned as soon as possible.
“Although, due to budget constraints, we are not in the position to offer a financial reward, we will offer a council tax discount of 5% for anyone providing information that leads to the safe return of the Menai Bridge.”
Police are expected to make a statement at 12.00pm today, 1st April.
Seems to be little imagination in anyone these day - but maybe that is because of Social Media and Fake News!

I have a White Rabbit for the day ...



And another look at the Taverns..


May see if I can work on that one as well

No Photographs from the weekend yet.
