The gammony Daily Mail types have probably tried to get excused already. You've probably got a fair chance of being sandwiched between some fat wifie and a student wid. To answer the other question I don't think you can appeal against the gross stupidity of a Jury, just if the Sheriff/Judge had misdirected them. The other way would be if it came to light that the jury had been nobbled or looked up the accused on Google etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was on jury duty about 12 years ago. I was surprised at how much sitting around in the jury room took place. Each day in a four day trial, we probably got two hours of testimony and then five hours of sitting in a room reading a book. Still better than working, though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the sender's fault if people with dirty minds come up with a different interpretation. (That said I didn't read the whole article so if he went on to say that she likes a finger bun shoved up her twat then he deserves everything he gets.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly isn't the case in the one I'm on. People from literally both ends of the lifestyle spectrum.

Commenced at 10am and by half 11 had had 3 'adjourns' totalling about 45minutes. Im no reading a book though, f**k that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The story could have been about how much happier women seem to be these days. We'll have to get to work on gaslighting techniques (just learnt what that means today). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derry Alli Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 I've just went past a guy taking his young lad to nursery. The wee lad is on his bike - the dad is also on a bike. This is one of the new schools in Dundee where about 4 got rolled into one. I understand the wee man getting to take his bike but how can the father stop and assist if anything is about to go wrong if he's on his bike as well? There's hundreds of motors as well as busses etc all trying to drop kids off and tooting and revving all over the place. The old boys an arsehole. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that fat, unhealthy alcoholic mess can make it past 60, anyone can. He is almost an inspiration. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
