Funny newspapers


In case you hadn't noticed it is April Fool's Day today and it is a newspaper tradition to throw a spoof story into their news section to mark the occasion.

The one that caught my eye today was The Scottish Sun's report that Glasgow Airport was to be re-named John Smeaton International after 'terror hero' Smeato.

I'm sick of the site of Smeato and the sooner he gets back to losing holidaymakers' bags the better but this story is brilliant, especially the line .. 'It's believed (BAA chiefs) took inspiration from New York's JFK Airport - named after the legendary US President - and John Lennon Airport in Liverpoo which honours the former Beatle.'
