Content




It is inevitable that, being who I am, this blog will contain a fair bit of comment on legal matters, including those cases which come before me in court. However, it is not restricted to such and may at times stray ‘off-topic’ and into whatever area interests me at the time.

All comments are moderated but sensible and relevant ones, even critical ones, are welcome; trolling and abuse is not and will be blocked.

Any actual case that I have been involved in, and upon which I may comment, will be altered in such a way as to make it completely unidentifiable.

Remember Remember the 5th of November

Today is Bonfire Night, or Guy Fawkes Night if you prefer, not that poor Guy was actually consigned to a Bonfire, he was hung drawn and quartered and the original effigy burnt was that of the Pope!



But never mind that small historical inaccuracy, let's celebrate this great English tradition while we can, before the 'elfs get their hands on it as they've done with conkers and much else besides.

While I'm on the subject I can't help recalling the old adage that Guy Fawkes was
"the only man ever to enter Parliament with honest intentions".

However you view him and his actions, have a happy and safe Bonfire Night.
