In time-honoured fashion, and with the minimum of fuss, a couple of the students in my Tutor Group demonstrated that I am not at my most alert at 8 am."Oh, Miss... " one of them exclaimed on seeing me head into the building from my car, "Be careful, your shoelace has come undone!"
I really should have twigged that it was 8 am on April 1st...
My only consolation, as I continued to make my way inside the building, was hearing the same student exclaim: "Joe! Your flies are undone... Hah! April Fool!"
I came into work and a co-worker said, "The boss wants to see you right now." And I believed him, even though the boss is on a business trip and not due back for two days!
ReplyDeleteWere you at least wearing something with shoelaces?
ReplyDeleteBaron - yes, as it happens... though, to be totally honest, it probably wouldn't have made any difference...
