Old Joke Brings Police to Doorstep

itv.com: 'Son for Sale' Ad Put on Web

"Hyperactive kid for sale, good at vacuuming, not great at washing dishes because he's too short. Guaranteed to annoy. Five pounds or nearest offer."

That's an online ad Alex Wilson placed as a joke on his son a few years ago. He forgot about it, some woman saw it and called the police. Either people need to remember how to take a joke or at least mind their own business. OK, so this really isn't news but, as you can see, I got a late start today and I'm fishing!
