April Fool free this year

It's OK - it's after midday

WynnumCentral has had a bit of fun in the past with April Fools – some of which worked better than others.

The secret we think is to make them at least believable, but there’s a form of ‘April Fool joke inflation’ which means they need to get more and more ridiculous each year, which is a tough ask!

One year we even had people believe the April Fools joke and massively doubt a real one (about the opening of a bar) published on the same day.

We did have a few ideas this year but none of them really passed the test. Maybe next year…

Here are some of our previous ones for your delectation…

2022 – Local amateur scientist discovers new element
2021 – Wynnum and Manly to merge in 2022 and become ‘Wymanly’
2019 – Is this the answer to better parking for all in Wynnum?
2018 – Wynnum Metro Light Rail Proposal
2017 – Wynnum to get its own currency (this was actually true but released on April Fools Day)
2016 – More buckets and spades planned for Wynnum Central
2015 – Republic of Wynnum to be recognised officially by the UN?

Which one do you think was the best? And the worst?
