When I was younger and more daft! ( or as Delboy would say: Strupider ) I used to do all sorts of pranks. My favourite though was one I would always do at Meadowhall - in the Oasis.

I'd nip down there with my best mate when we were wagging school and after spending time & money in the arcade, would nip down and buy some food from McDonalds.

We noticed that there were quite alot of cleaners around always running around from table to table - so we decided to have some fun. After eating we'd get one of the napkins and write a little message on it, usually something like:

To the blonde cleaner, you are well fit, you have really nice eyes and an amazing body - what are you doing cleaning when you could be modelling, I may very well offer you a job the next time im in. anyway - till next time XX'

We would then leg it up the escalators to the top where the cinema entrance was and watch from over the balcony, once the note was found it would cause a right commotion between the cleaners and the ones with blonde hair would go all red or get really happy.

They'd always look around to see if the person was still there, you could see the others all laughing or holding their mouths waiting and watching for Mr millionaire to come back and offer them a job!!

Have you lot ever done anything that made you giggle at others? :P

I loved making prank phonecalls in the years before 1471 !!

Favourite....

Look up someone with the surname 'Whitehead'. Phone them.

You: Is that Mr Blackhead?

Them: No - this is Mr Whitehead.

You: Sorry. Wrong zit.

:hihi:

Recently met a respected & highly regarded gentleman & hid a pepperpot in his coat pocket while he was in the powder room :hihi:

:suspect: or was it Viking???

The recruitment Agency I work for used to supply temporary staff and one day we had a call from Beagles About. We set up one of our temps to work in an opticians in meadowhall, she had to press a buzzer if shee needed any help handling a customer.

A 'customer' started to be awkward and so she pressed the buzzer...... the fire alarms went off and in rushed the fire brigade, headed up by Jerremy Beagle.

Poor lass!

This wasnt mine so i cant take credit for it but a friend worked at a place where one of the work experience lads was sent to the bank with a closed envelope told by one of the guys to just hand it to the cashier and she would deal with it, it was supposedly a cheque so she would cash it.

In fact their was a note in the envelope that read "ive got a gun in my pocket, give me your money". Poor lad handed it over and the girl pressed the button behind the counter so all the shutters went up and the doors locked.

The company got fined for wasting police time, but imo it was well worth it!!

I've got a good story of a practical joke, but it's not for a family forum.

Oh! you are a card Nick. :hihi:

I was going to make a pun about the queen of clubs but I don't want another 24hr holiday now the weathers turned.

too many to mention and all highly illegal...


suppose one i could say would be to throw flour over a irritating neighbours car. when its damp in the morning its impossible to get off!!!

A recent one involved myself, son and daughter.

We'd been making up some fruit smoothies and the lad remarked on how much it resembled vomit - then he had an idea.
We stage a fight between brother and sister - he thumps her in stomach and she runs off to loo making puking noises. Mum is waiting in kitchen with a small amount of the fruit mixture in a glass and promptly pours it onto her chest, says a few choice words and walks into room to show her 'puke-covered' top. Then young son approaches, sniffs at the 'vomit' then proceeds to lick it off.

The look on my other lad's face was priceless.

This is a bit tame but it's the only one I can think of.

Me and some mates were once off to a rave (I think it was in London) in the car. One mate got out and emptied his bladder at the roadside behind the car. As he did so, another mate stuck his camera out of the window, took a picture, then quickly pulled the camera back in before my mate saw.

He was convinced that he'd been flashed by a police speed camera, and was now going to be in trouble for urinating in a public place. We all played along for about half an hour before admitting that it was my mate's camera. :)

Just found this thread.
I have an ongoing feud with my neighbour. The other week I had prepared a chicken ready for roasting ( stuffed it and wrapped in foil so all I'd have to do later was put it in the oven). After a while of cooking I noticed a smell of old socks. My neighbour had only gone and crept into the house while I was in the garden and swapped the chicken for one of my shoes. It was burnt to a crisp!

Any ideas for getting him back are welcomed. He keeps chickens and at the moment I've saving loads of rotten eggs. In the spring I'm going to sneak into his garden every night and exchange his fresh eggs for my rotten ones.

This is a prank that I played on my last day of school...

1. Place clear plastic wrap over the toilet bowl.
2. Put the lid down
3. Wait nearby to hear the screaming!

:hihi:

Almost forgot my favourite "ala Caddy Shack"...

Put chocolate bar in the swimming pool and wait for reaction!

i've never done it but an old one i heard of is popping a mars bar up a drunken (comatose) fools b u m and when they wake up....:gag:

Asked some friends to go to a specialist delicatessen in an elite village near where I used to live many years ago to buy dried qualms for a delicacy I was preparing which they then told me they'd obtained.

A friend and I ( who is a male nurse ) played a prank on some snobby people in a pub one day.... He had attached a cathater to His leg with a tube off it.... we sat down and began talking loudly so as to draw their attention.... I mentioned I hadn't seen Him in a while.... He replied that He had been in Hospital and had an operation and they had plugged Him into a cathater.... Oooh! I asked, Can I have a look?.... so He rolls up His trouser leg to the disgust of everyone. Aw.... I said.... that looks a bit full, give it here and I'll empty it for You.... to which He duly unplugs it and passes it to me. I then empty the contents into my glass and gulp it down.... I said how nice it was and I'll let Him fill it up again.... so he plugged it back in and we tried our best to keep straight faces as their faces were so disgusted and unbelievable.... we could hear some of the rude comments made.

Little did they know it was pre filled with ginger beer.... doubt they do still to this day. :D

Sooooooo that was you was it? :suspect:
Ps guess my surname :rant:

when i was a teenager i had a babysitting job my friend always used to come with me and when the children had gone to bed we used to ring any old number and say...Hiya...guess who it is?...they would either say.."i dont know"...which i'd reply .."go on have a guess"...eventually they would say someone's name and i'd say.."yeah..how are you" and get a conversation going for aslong as i could. Ive arranged alsorts with people i know from being invited to tea to meeting them the following week. I'm not proud of myself now but were really funny at the time!

I'm going back some years.

I was in the old central deaf club on surrey street, chatting to a lass called Keeley when a hearing man interrupted and asked me how to sign the word "happy", instead I taught him the sign for "sex".
Keeley almost corrected it until I winked and told her to shush.

For years I'd laugh myself into a stitch watching him on the box clowning about with my practical joke still in play.

Sorry for dragging up old threads but I thought I'd come clean and get it off my chest, I've held it in for too long now.

I used to work in an engineering company. The shop floor was full of lathes and power presses and all sorts. Two of the fellas who worked there used to open up in the morning at 6:00 am (depending who got there first). One always used to hide behind a machine and jump out and scare the other, as he had a bit of a nervous disposition.

One day, the prankster arrived early. Shortly followed by the other one, who as usual nervously approached machines and gingerly made his way to the locker room to get into his overalls. No sign of the prankster! Nowhere in sight.

Yep you probably guessed.....He was 'inside' the other guys locker. Imagine the shock!!!
