    Brilliant! :blue thumb:

    I like a good challenge. :) I've spent a lot of time in court (not criminal), mainly Small Claims but right up through County and the Taxing Masters through to the Royal Courts of Justice in the Strand. It was a hobby of mine. :heehee:

          It must be 60 years since I read A.P. Herbert! I wonder if I still have the books hidden somewhere...

            You can still buy them on Amazon - I think. :scratch: He was a brilliant author and, to a certain extent, attempted to take the pomposity out of the system. He tried the same in parliament. :blue thumb:
