Hi guys
Sorry it is a bit late but I have only just sat down and had my tea after a very looooong day and dashing about on after school stuff.
The day started with my arrival at court at 09:30 for a 10:00 appointment. Sat in a waiting room with about 6 others who were doing the deed. What suprised me was the fact that it was just in a general enquiries office and you could hear everybodys buisness.
Sat down in the waiting room and waited my turn. Lots of people coming and going and then burger me someone came in who I work with on a totally unrelated matter. After trying to put my head between my knees for 5 mins without drawing attention to myself the game was up and I said Hi. There was a moments silence and I was saved by my call to the interview room
There were several things wrong with the form and it even had a bit missing that was not downloaded:rolleyes: but the lady was very nice and we went through everything and she then told me that the judge may or may not wish to see me and to return at 13:40 :rolleyes: to recieve my BR form. As this was at 10:40 I had 3 hours to kill so decided to have a look round the city. As I was leaving the room burger me I saw someone else I knew :rolleyes:. What are the odds on that I wonder and any thoughts of aninimity went out of the window
.
I returned at 13:20 for my 13:40 appointment. I went into the room at 14:20:mad: and was told that I was made BR at 14:06 :T and there was no need to see the judge and the OR would be in touch within the next couple of days. I did ask about my Co op account and the lady told me that to carry on as usual until OR has been in touch.
I actually left the court at 14:30. I was seen for about 22 mins in a total of 6 hours so my advice would be to be prepared to wait and take something to entertain you.I did not find court daunting if anything it was slightly boring with long periods of nothing happening.
Deeds all done now and I am now debt free. Not too sure how I feel to be honest and feel a bit numb but deep down I am relieved.
Thank you all for your help and support and I did go through many names on here when I was waiting and had a little smile
Thank you all :T

Why, so that the smell would have cleared the room when he unwrapped the cling film?
That would have stopped him being recognised........

Welcome back to the real world YM and well played . 6 hours wow, must be a record. Funny, when I went a person doing the same as me was from my town ' The hospital chef' who, when I see her at the hospital promised me an extra rashion of bacon wih my breakfast. Have a nice evening;) :beer:Better to be poor than a slave to wealth
