- There was quite a good story in the paper today, a possible UL. It
- told of two TV news casters in Zimbabwe who were disciplined for
- bursting out in laughter after reading a story about a woman who gave
- birth on a train. The baby was born in the toilet on the train,
- literally 'in the toilet' and was flushed through to the track below.
- The train was halted and the baby was found fortunately alive.
-
- This was in the Argus (Cape Town Paper Daily) on 28th December
- (today). The newsreader bit might be true but the baby falling from
- a train got me wondering. Why on earth would a woman give birth into
- a toilet? Still it could happen......
