He tended to be involved in the prosecution of various high-profile cases - in the Ruth Ellis one, he was junior counsel to Christmas Humphreys. Who ironically was a Buddhist. And a Merry Humphreys to you all.

May your day be filled with joy! Thank you. Had a good day. Loved watching the grandchildren excitedly unwrapping their presents. Whilst you grapple with the politics and PR implications of a group of apprentices making toys for children I would rather concentrate on imagining the smiles on their faces as they opened their own gifts. To me that’s more what it’s about. I hope you had a good day too. (Seriously) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoTail Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 If you go to B&Q you can pickup a few decent sized sheds for a couple of grand. That should do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
