God moves in mysterious ways my gnomish friend, that's how...

I was on the plane following his most of the way. Mine set out from Abu Dhabi, just down the road. I wasn't ordained there though, just sobering up en route from Thailand.

And there Back in Thailand I did something rather religious... I had a Buddhist monk put a wrist band on me and bless me. Still got it on now, although I will have to cut it off before tomorrow. Bare below elbows and all that, and my office is in a hospital.

Religion versus your average infection control nurse? God isn't even in the same league when it comes to obedience and scaring people into doing as they are told.

Anyway, early night and back to reality in the morning. I bought a three wise Buddhas ornament for my desk. Hear no bollocks, see no bollocks, say no bollocks. Doesn't seem very religious to me? Mind you the price was right, they look cute and when people pop in for a whinge, they may put them off their stride.
