Also im sure she tells our manager what goes on when she's out of the office as she seems to know what goes on...unless she has a camera in the room to spy on us? It does feel like we are walking on eggshells a bit when our colleague is in the room and the rest of us want to have a laugh.Other collegues have noticed this but none of us want to confront anyone as this will make our job more awkward.Any advice?

I'm sure that collectively you'll all be able to think of some spoof or other, something that's bound to attract his attention.
