Presumably only as public defendants or the cps though ? I'm sure The Bar still has unwritten rules to prevent non-public school applicants becoming barristers.

Twiglets are yuck.
The smell of someone eating twiglets next to you is also yuck.

Don't care much about plain pretzels, but can be tempted by a bag of Penn State sour cream & chives pretzels.

That's pretty amusing.

I work in a semi-detached way with a Kevin over here who runs a multi-million $ project and have a Kieran who is a very good friend, an Army Major (in the process of being promoted), has 2 degrees, a teaching qualification and is at the tail end of his PhD. Oh and Kieran helps NASA out now and again.

The first girl I fell in love with was called Karen.

Bloody K-ist. I'm disappointed frankly.

What's wrong with the nice people today?

Twiglets are almost as good as liver and bacon.

I think the first page of the Bar exam states (probably in Latin):

"Come an' 'ave a go, only if you're posh enough"

I found a red rose in full bloom in the garden this morning.


Sadly, I came over all 'domestic' picked it, some holly and some ivy and have tried a flower arrangement.

Oh dear. I am not a natural. It looks like.....la tribute to a weed killers against ivy . Oh dear.

I quite agree - all those cards with big writing and 'sincere' messages are totally tacky and tasteless...or was there something else wrong with it?
