A snippet from outside the operation theatre recently.
One of our staff was waiting anxiously outside the operation theatre while his wife was undergoing an elective caesarean. More of our staff “supporters and well wishers” who were with him during this wait used the time to convince him that his wife was actually having twins. The gag caught on, and eventually they managed to sow this seed of doubt successfully, reinforcing it by drawing allusion to his wife’s “huge” tummy and the necessity to perform an elective caesaran. The poor father to be was most relieved when only one bawling baby emerged!
Well wishers or wishers in the well?
