A mate of minehad a long running prank that he and his brother used to do. It was in the style of Clouseau and Cato where whoever got home from school first would hide somewhere in the house and being kids at the time you could hide almost anywhere. So in true Clouseau style upon seeing the other siblings school stuff when entering the house a good five mins was always spent searching the house waiting for the inevitable attack from 'Cato'

A mate of mine told me this oneWhile students in Sheffield, he and a bunch of mates went out for one blokes birthday bash. While out and drunk, two or three of them hatched a cunning plan and went home early.
When the three conspirators got back to the student flats, they proceeded to swap everything round from birthday boys third-floor flat living room to the ground floor flat.
When birthday boy arrived home, drunk and not paying attention, they took him to "his" living room and continued to drink. Then someone had the brilliant idea of throwing him out of the window.
Kicking and screaming all the way, they dragged him to what he thought was the third-floor window of his living room, and chucked him out.
The story-teller doesn't tell me whether or not the flatmate was amused. But it doesn't really matter.
