It is April Fool's Day. Here is some Kiwi humour for you.

When

I was a child a radio station released a message on April Fool's Day stating that a bottle of water lying on your front garden would stop neighbourhood dogs coming and peeing on your lawn. Suddenly bottles appeared everywhere. We would walk around the neighbourhood and see bottles of water scattered on every section. Even my Dad had a few bottles out, just in case of roaming dogs 😂. This rumour wouldn't die and every now and then it pops up again. It has become an urban myth.

    @Gaby OC Now you are going to have to observe the water bags to see if they work or not. You could conduct a small scientific experiment 😄

  • Rachael

    @Jayden How likely do you think it is to work?😊 Dogs pee on all sorts of obstacles.

  • Rachael

    @Hy Laughter is always good medicine 💊😄. I am glad I could facilitate some goodness

  • Rachael

    @Hahahaha Well, we wondered whether it worked and then one day I watched a dog pee beside the bottle 😂

  • Gaby OC

    Aquí en México, llenan con agua bolsas de plástico trasparente, y las cuelgas en los lugares donde no quieren que haya moscas. La verdad no sé si funciona jajajjajajajaj!😄

  • Jayden

    Interesting 🤔

    @Rachael hahahahahahaha I didn’t have a chance to listen to a new April Fool’s Day joke this year, except reading a news about Volkswagen is in trouble after they put their joke. You made me laugh, thank you :))

  • Hahahaha

    So it doesn't work? Does dogs still pee on lawn and never pee in the bottle?

    @ayako It sounds like another urban myth😄

  • Rachael

    @light Excellent reading 😊. The only words to work on are, roaming and pops

    @ayako 😂😂😂

    @Hy 😄 There was another April Fool's Day joke I liked too. When I was a child they used to have televised sheep dog trials. A farmer would use special whistles to get a dog to move left or right to bring sheep to an enclosure. Except, on April Fool's Day, the dog was radio controlled. Everyone thought it was a new technology😄

  • ayako

    In Japan, many people put bottles of water to avoid wild cats peeing on their walls or gardens😳 I thought it's kinda normal people do it.
