i fell for it!!!! ba done!! but google it and there is such a thing!!!! so i dont know if that makes me a total idiot!!! as i did my own investigation work before sending ray a message regarding the price and sizes :( haha

In fairness, you took the hook, half the line, but not the sinker. Still no excuse for not querying the square thread bit though. I thought I might have overcooked it with that little detail, but I couldnt resist leaving it in. :)
 
I must be the dumbest person out there, I thought it sounded great! Until next year Ray - watch out!
 
Also on the innocent list, because they sussed out the gag but played along:

Keefy, Mike Jackson, Stoker122, Wheeto, SimonG and Ecowarm.

CentralHeatKing, Croppie and Tamz innocent of falling for it, but guilty of conspiracy to embarrass their fellow tradesmen.

Croppie, Ray and I spent quite a while gettin this together - Croppie as mod man , Ray was essential as he sells stuff and myself (i started it) as i really do design plumbing innovations - so it is ok to be scammed the 3 of us are all experts in our own fields - really glad all are happy.......centralheatking

Didn't really have much to do. It was all Rob and Ray..... Being as I now know who fell for it!
 
I'd had 7 bottles of lager when this thread popped up and was also in the middle of writing up an official-looking draft copy of my own April Fool - "HMRC Unveils Plumbers Tax" which I intended to post this morning but after choking on my beer laughing at Rays OP decided it would be best to go along with the new SQUBE tube.
 
Thankfully I Sussed it early on but it did look like a great product! Last year the sun did a story about dart boards being made square from now on! I totally fell for it and rang my brother inlaw to see if he'd seen it. He told me I was a ***** and to ring him back when I'd grown a brain!
 
When I was a kid Blue Peter said everyone who owned a bike needed a bike license and needed to go the Post Office to get one so me and my cousin did, the queue was huge with kids on their BMX's moaning about how stupid it was.
 
I had a skin full of Murphys but that's no excuse.

There are square threads though in all fairness :)
