I've just got home....what an ordeal - it was just as bad as I thought it would be  ...and yes Daz it was in the papers...apparently Times, Telegraph and Mail - on Friday. The trial should last for several weeks - estimated five at the moment - but if my experience was anything to go by it will be longer than that. |

Oh, Mel, I hope you're having a nice relaxing wine now. Well done! And I hope the scum get big fat long sentences. ;D |

I'm having mucho coffee Mathilde! Mr P plied me with intravenous dry martini after my 2 and a half hours in the witness box and though I'm glad it's all over I feel strangely flat because I feel that they wiped the floor with me and that several aspects of these vile creatures behaviour were not brought out....ah well I was only the 3rd witness out of 60+....so let's hope the others give 'em what for.

I don't have any here. He took me to a lovely little pub near Tate Modern and we sat in the sun and DRANK!  |

The only plus about this whole thing was that after i had waited most of Friday waiting to be called they said there would not be time to hear me so could I come back on Monday...so Mr P and I had a lovely weekend in London and I have taken a ton of pictures which I am busy getting ready to put on flickr. |

The trial should last for several weeks - estimated five at the moment - but if my experience was anything to go by it will be longer than that. Oh damn..I barely bother reading the newspapers nowadays..its more like reading Al Jazeera Times only from the English point of view. If I wanted to read all about Afghanistan and Iraq I would have gone and lived there  I dont really know the details..some so-called antique dealers blagged your father into selling priceless paintings and artwork for very low prices? Is that a reasonable appraisal. |

I've just got home....what an ordeal It sounds awful I am glad you’ve survived and it’s all over, now (your part is all over, now, isn’t it?). He took me to a lovely little pub near Tate Modern and we sat in the sun and DRANK! That’s good. I worked opposite The White Hart for about six months and never once went in: perhaps I should have. I have taken a ton of pictures which I am busy getting ready to put on flickr. Some lovely pictures (so far?). You’ve succeeded in making a rather tatty area look really very attractive. |

I took 300 pics Wivens! I am working on them now - but will probably post a few a day for a month! |
