So the BBC interviewed the wrong man on News 24 last week. They mistook big black IT man Guy for White editor of Newswireless.net also named Guy... Hmmm. Made for great comedy viewing though.
Many years ago I used to work at the eye hospital in the Minor surgery Unit, I was very junior and was asked to get a man ready for theatre. He was from a local psychiatric unit and had a nurse escort (not qualified I hastened to add)
I was busy. I went behind the curtains to find this little quiet man sat on a chair. He didn't say a word. I handed him the gown and asked him to change. He did. Took all his clothes off and put the gown on with the ties up the back.
Later when they went in to check him for theatre they found the mental health nurse with the gown on. The actual patient was in the toilet when I'd gone in.... The poor guy thought it was policy and just done as I'd asked.
Was I embarrassed or what?

ps read this... made me laugh
"My mates step mum sadly passed to the other side. Everyone was crying at the funeral. Even the local girls who used to go round her's for elicit drinks. As the coffin rolled towards the flames organ music started. It was slow and touching and just when I though the whole room would break a beat kicked in and george michael was singing "well it would be nice, if I could touch your body...." It was bloody faith"
