To add further, the lorry drivers who must legally take a break get caught by the cowboys.

Here is an amusing picture showing Boris talking to the Queen.  If she does accept the 3 month part time job, doubt she will stop at Roadchef

Love this lol

well it's been a long time since I posted on here - but today I received a court date of 16th March - virtual 
Strangely I expected it to request that I submit a witness statement, but it is only asking the Claimant shall no later than 2 clear days prior to the hearing supply a PDF bundle to include 
1. A concise statement of the issues between the parties
2. A chronology
3. A draft order

Just before Xmas I had a letter saying that I would be asked to provide a witness statement in the court hearing letter and told when it should be submitted - but there is nothing on there!
Should I ring the court?

You could do , but check your court order front and back , because it usually says to do so XX days before the hearing , so typically 14 days before , it could be on any of them , if you have had more than one

If in doubt , don't give us hearsay , show us Redacted pictures , so we can see what you have seen , a picture paints a thousand words ! Just ensure that it doesn't show any personal information

Here is the letter I received today - the previous letter was just telling me that it was being transferred to Milton Keynes County Court

...and what was on the next page - maybe on the back of that page?

Agreed , I did mention checking the back , and showing us the pictures ( plural ) lol 😁😁

I suspect that the defendant will have to agree a joint bundle , that the claimant then prepares and sends to all parties a few days before the hearing , so I believe that the defendant must send the claimant their part of that jointly agreed bundle ( so should liaise with the claimant or their lawyers , if used )

There is no way that the defendant would not be expected to prepare their bundle or submit it at some point , those details are probably on the back of the Court order above , because the front has told the claimant what to do!

These days, when courts are using virtual hearings, they often direct that the claimant send a bundle and will have told/will tell the defendant to liaise with the claimant to make sure that their witness statement etc., is included.

Which means you do have to file and serve your WS and evidence by xx deadline.  It will be there.

on the back it just says to notify them if a remote hearing is not an option

You MUST have something that tells you when to file & serve the documents and WS upon which you rely.
