lizziec | There isn't really a lot about the disaster in the Indian Ocean that can make one smile

But here is something that made me grin at least. The guy concerned is in prison, but to cover up that fact from family, friends and colleauges he said he was going to Phuket for three months. After the Tsunami he didn't get in touch with his family to tell them he was ok and so they assumed he was a victim...

You could say his pretence backfired a bit on him. Oops ;)

If I were his family I'd be so relieved he wasn't dead I'd want to kill him myself for having me convinced he was dead for two weeks...
