In the thick of it

So I have now completed 4 weeks on my feet. In short it is fantastic. This is worth waiting for. Happily I have been kept busy, often appearing in two courts a day and only having had one entire day out of court. As yet I have not received any cheques. Most of the clients I've represented seem nice too, there has only been one so far who I found a bit much to bear. He was high as a kite throughout our conference and proceedings, being far more worried about picking up his next script from the pharmacy. He was very lucky to avoid custody on that day, but I was not convinced he realised the reality of the situation he faced.


I am yet to do a trial, but it looks like I may get one next week. Fingers crossed I win my first one, but sometimes the forces are well and truely against you at the Magistrates court.


I know this post is a bit short, but life has shot along at break neck speed over the last month. Good luck to all those about to confront interview season. I may see a few of you at my set!

What can I say? I'm green with envy, but wish you all the very best, now you are well and truly on your way.

p.s. my word verification is 'pregi', now there's a turn up for the books:-)

All the VERY best, Beanie, not only for your first trial, but for the remainder of your second six and beyond !( I am loathe to say the 'T' word because I am a bit superstitious!) :)

Well done PB, glad you are enjoying things.

Nice to see that the dream we are all striving for is not a nightmare!
