Is there a free classifieds website around that people actually use? I'm plotting a joke on my chum.

Craigslist? Gumtree? I know people that use both of them.

Actually, I don't know if they are free. I doubt they're more than a few quid though.

loot? Is that free?

If it's a good enough practical joke, it's worth spending a few quid on. If not, then it's probably not worth bothering with.

No practical joke is a good one, IMHO.

Oh I don't know - sex is pretty good.

SRSLY? They can be absolutely brilliant, as long as the victim finds it funny, though.

Isn't that more of a theoretical joke?

Turns out Gumtree was free. It'd definitely be worth spending money on, but fortunately I didn't have to

I've posted an ad for a reasonably cheap but believable Sony Bravia telly under my mate's name. He should get loads of phone calls about it

This is retaliation, by the way, and not just pure evil.

Does he have a Sony Bravia?

You should have stuck his number in some weird sexual ad on Craigslist.

For you, perhaps.

I always thought that if there is a god, sex was a big practical joke that she played on us all, that we turned out to quite like.

An ex-girlfriend once sent a text out to myself and numerous friends which read: "40-inch Sony LCD TV for sale if anyone's interested, but the volume control doesn't work. Only £200 though, you just can't turn it down!". All of us but one friend saw the gag immediately - sadly this one friend called her straight up and it took her nearly ten minutes to explain to him it was a joke. He seemed most upset about it too.

Hmm, well I await the details of this one with interest...

I did say can be, and for the record I don't think this one is going to be particularly amusing for the recipient.

What did he do to you, Jonny?

This is going to be incredibly amusing for the recipient! He put my number on a supermarket classifieds wall saying I was selling a "lovely little cottage in the Isle of Man", which was amusing.

Cottage or cottaging?
