Your mic's on...I know it's on!

Via Dvorak Uncensored: An article by Kurt Bayer on Scotsman.com titled "Minister's microphone causes a wee splash at church" describes an embarrassing moment for Rev John Hawdon:

A MINISTER had his congregation squirming with embarrassment when he used the toilet during a service and forgot to switch off his clip-on radio microphone. The Rev John Hawdon was standing in for Elizabeth Kay at Longforgan Parish Church in Perthshire. But when nature called during a break in proceedings, he forgot to switch off his microphone, which broadcast his every splash and sigh to the congregation. Speaking at his home in Dundee last night, Mr Hawdon said: "I actually had a walk during the service, as I often do. But the congregation must have heard everything. I wasn't aware that I still had my microphone on." A parishioner said: "It was mortifying. Every sound boomed and echoed around the church. We all sat there looking at each other, totally embarrassed. One or two folk managed a wee giggle."
