    Today someone got the sister to phone the Golden Pages asking if there was a jewellers in Athenry. She came back with the results, and then was told to call back to ask for the number of The Fields of Athery.

    Remember people used to order pizzas to other peoples houses as a joke? Well an ex-friend of mine took it one step further. She used to ring skip companies and order skips to peoples houses who she didn't like and then go and spy the next morning to see the reaction on their faces when it arrived.

    What? Prank calls are fun.....if you are seven years old.


    "Hi, Can I speak to one of the Walls?

    Sorry, there are no Walls here

    What there are no Walls there?

    Thats right, no Walls.

    Well, you better be careful 'cos your house might fall down."



    Of course, the unforgettable day when we discovered a Mr. P Ness in the phonebook...

    Back when we were teenagers, me and my mate were making calls. I was rubbish at them and usually just burst out laughing before the punchline, and hang up.

    My mate was much better at them, so he did this one where we found a funny name (can't remember the name...let's say it was Mr. Gayman).

    So he dials and some lady answers and he proceeds to asking to speak to Mr. Gayman. His face was red from trying to hold in his laugh....all seems to be going well but then his face changed....to one of shock and sadness.

    Turns out that he'd couldn't speak to Mr. Gayman because he had recently died.

    Paddies day a few years back we were boozing in a house and one of the lads rang 11811 looking for the number of Harry Molloys Garage in Carraigstown. Got through to a really helpful fella who was trying his best but he was obviously half pissed and they were all drinking in the background judging by the noise and the fact he had it on speaker

    (for those who haven't copped it, this garage is a fictional one from Fair City)

    After a while he told him to ask one of the girls beside him and she copped it so we had a nice aul giggle and a long chat and when the phone was hung up yer mano decided to text him the number of pretty much every garage in the greater dublin area, the phone was beeping for the next hour :D
    Great laugh at the time

    We did prank calls on a radio show that I used to do. Waaayyy more difficult than they look...and the funniest stuff always happened when it went wrong. For example, once I had a complete brain fart, forgot what I was supposed to be saying by the time someone picked up and was caught completely off-guard when he asked who I was looking for. Panicking, I looked across the studio at the guy in there with me.

    "Sean?" I said, congratulating myself on the inside for coming up with such a common name on the spot. Every decent-sized Irish business has a Sean working in it. That would mean he'd go looking for someone while I got my bearings and remembered the prank.

    "This is Sean, how can I help?" he said.

    Balls...
