Good afternoon from the Tribesman Chapter in Galway - Ireland South & West.

I recently had to spend some time in hospital. I received an advance copy of Business Networking and Sex from Executive Directors, Andy and Sandra Hart.

As I sat in the hospital waiting room, I took out my book and started to read. Quite a number of people came and went but I knew I had at least 2 hours to wait for my room. I was engrossed in the book when I noticed two women standing beside me. I looked up when one of them said to me "Young man, do you think it is appropriate to read THAT TYPE OF BOOK in public (yes, she raised her voice slightly!!)To add to the spice of the story, the two women were Nuns!!!!!

I asked her what did she mean???  Reading a book about S E X (this time in a whisper!!)in public is sinful..... it was then I realised the name of the book was annoying her. I showed her the book cover and the line "not what you think" and started to explain what BNI was about but they were not listening.

Thankfully, it was time for me to go to the admissions office. I'm sure there was a prayer or two said for me and the author of the book!!!!!
