I got the same thing and I haven't watched porn since I was a teenager!

I was just noting down the dates this morning of what's coming up in the coming weeks on top of the regular day to day stuff;
Jury service for me next month, but other than that I'll miss anything to spend an afternoon indulging with beer and sunshine. It's amazing how you lose all sense of time and start relying on the sun to tell you what time it is.Dallas wrote: ↑Wed Jun 09, 2021 2:55 pmI was just noting down the dates this morning of what's coming up in the coming weeks on top of the regular day to day stuff;
Euro 2020 11th June - 11th July
Royal Ascot 15th June - 19th June
Wimbledon 28th June - 11th July
If you like to watch them
Olympics 23rd July - 8th Aug
Tour de France 26th June - 18th July
No idea where I'm even going to find the time to squeeze an episode of Dallas in each day between the weekend and mid July
Are you looking forward to the Jury service? I've always wanted to do it but not been called up yet!Derek27 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 09, 2021 6:38 pmJury service for me next month, but other than that I'll miss anything to spend an afternoon indulging with beer and sunshine.

When I first got the summoning my immediate thought was that Bet Angel would need to purchase a new stack of servers to cater for the rant thread.

I had a rant about it here, but after a couple of days, I thought it might do me a bit of good getting out and meeting people. It's hopefully a once in a lifetime experience and might prepare me for court if I ever find myself in the dock for historical crimes that I committed when I was a teenager.
As a matter of interest, why do you want to do it? I would let you take my place if it was transferable.
My brother's also been summoned the same month as I have. Quite a coincidence, but I guess there must be a backlog of cases due to covid so your chances of being selected might be slightly improved.darchas wrote: ↑Wed Jun 09, 2021 9:21 pmDerek27 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 09, 2021 9:17 pmWhen I first got the summoning my immediate thought was that Bet Angel would need to purchase a new stack of servers to cater for the rant thread.

I've always thought it would be quite interesting - having said that my father in law did it a few years back and spent over a week not even getting picked for a case, which doesn't sound fun. Although he did get a couple of cases in the end that were pretty interesting.

I think the selection process is entirely random, so it's possible to spend two weeks sitting in the waiting room without ever getting selected to sit on a case, whilst someone else could have 2 or 3 cases. I won't be trading from the waiting room but I'll have plenty of other work prepared so it's not a total loss. But be careful what you wish for. After you've been selected to sit on a jury, the judge may advise you that the trial is expected to last 6 months. This is the usual reaction.
