Hi, I was on a training course from work last week and one of the modules was on communication.

We got 5 minutes on communication by bodily function, how to interpret bodily functions and even the dangers of communication by bodily function !

My friend saw a woman get knocked over by a bus, so she quickly dialled 999 and told the operator what had happened, they asked what the woman was doing, my friend said she was in the 'missionary position'! I think she meant recovery......
