Bits of useless information.....???

1 April is April Fool’s Day. Watch out for spoof articles in the news media, or workplace. April Fool’s Day possibly dates from the time when 25 March was New Year’s Day and 1 April, a week later, marked the end (or height) of festivities and fun (fooling). Another theory is that when the Gregorian calendar was introduced by Pope Gregory XIII in October 1582, New Year’s Day changed to 1 January and those who didn’t hear the news, or forgot, were called fools. The Gregorian calendar was not adopted by Britain until 1752.
