    Move your chair closer to the TV.

    You will find that if your nose is touching the screen, the picture will appear the size of a cinema screen !

    Home improvement fans - recreate the sound of an expensive gravel drive without the cost by filling your shoes with Rice Krispies before leaving the house.

    While walking down the road, fool people into thinking you are Ronaldo by throwing yourself to the ground every time you pass someone walking in the opposite direction.

    Pretend you're a giant panda by giving yourself two black eyes, eating only bamboo shoots and refusing to have sex with the missus.

    Would-be cricketers. Fool your friends into thinking you are an England test cricketer by drinking 10 pints of Stella and getting an accomplice to drive you round and round Trafalgar Square while you lean out of the sunroof.

    fool permies into thinking you are a touch deaf by farting loudly, ignoring the phone when it rings, and talk very loudly to agents on your mobile.
