Aaaaaaargh!
The older one's among thee will remember the TV programme 'Noel's House Party' when Noel Edmunds would trick a well-known celebrity with some bizarre scheme to emerge with a 'Gotcha Oscar' at the end of it. Some of them appeared so far-fetched as you sat with the insider knowledge in your living room you wondered how any of them ever fell for some of the stunts.
Well I cannot believe I've fallen for this one today. In fact I'm devastated. I emailed Dave Thornton from work with a photo of the yellow tipping on some of my Kestrel leaves. His reply was quite alarming. "Your Kestrel will be dead within 2 weeks. Wet crack".
In a panic I quickly googled 'wet crack' to find out if there was anything that could be done to avert disaster. The list of websites that came up was like a who's who of the most debauched porn imaginable....and I imagine an awful lot of it! It will certainly take some explaining to the geeks in our IT Dept but to be fair they didn't believe me before when I insisted I'd merely mistyped the name of an old college friend I was trying to get back in touch with, Alan Entry.

This reminds me of the trick people used to play on the pub barmaids. They would phone the pub during a very busy time of the evening and ask her if Mike Hunt was in the bar. The more gullible barmaids would fall straight into the trap of calling out across the bar 'Is Mike Hunt in the bar?', of 'Has anyone seen Mike Hunt' etc. Of course the whole room would dissolve into fits of laughter. Brilliant!
Can't believe I fell for it. Gutted! Lol
No hoax, honey. You ain't seen nothing 'til you've seen what I can do with a couple of King Edwards and a hair straightener.
