I think it’s to a fairly low maximum tho; certainly not what a tradesman could earn in a day. And the lunch is shitey pre-packed sandwiches; or it is at Glasgow Sheriff Court anyway. 

The trick is to say you're prejudiced against all races.

Boy, 3, in tears after opening 'dud 50p Transform-A-Snack crisps' bought by grandad

Grandad Steve Perrin, from Kingstanding, said Golden Wonder mistake 'ruined' his grandson's day

A grandad told how his three-year-old grandson 'burst into tears' after being 'let down' by his favourite crisp brand. Steve Perrin regularly treats little Milo to a packet of 50p Transform-A-Snacks when he collects him from nursery.

But the Kingstanding resident, 48, claims Milo was left 'utterly distraught' when he opened a 'dud packet' of the beef-flavoured crisps in late January. Milo was extremely upset to find he could not build a crisp-shaped car as only wheels were inside, said Steve

He added that the 'crisp car body' pieces required to make it were missing - leaving Milo unable to play with his snack. Crisp manufacturer Golden Wonder has since apologised and said it would send the pair 'a gesture of goodwill

 

"When we got home, he was utterly distraught and inconsolable to find there were only a load of wheel crisps inside. He absolutely loves making the cars and always asks for them - he's very polite.

"But when he opened the pack, he burst out crying. It took me a good while to calm him down. I couldn't go back to the shop as it was too far away and was getting very dark.

Steve said the incident "ruined" Milo's day. "There was probably some kind of error at the factory - however I don't think Milo could fully understand the situation," he added.

The worlds gone mad.

Do you have to do it under oath? I only particularly dislike the Canadians and the Welsh. 

It's the Scots for me. They've ruined Scotland.

Incidentally, it’s almost 4 hours from Gobblers Knob to Intercourse…some foreplay!

Ah right. I was on duty at the high court and it was a knife and fork job. That was 20 odd years ago mind you.

I think they stopped giving jurors knives and forks after the 12 Angry Men murders ..

Spoiler

12 in a civil jury, 15 in a criminal jury in Scotland if there's any pedantic cuntos out there.

That reminds me of the experts expert on Give Us A Clue, Lionel Blair. Who can ever forget opposing team captain Una Stubbs sitting open mouthed as he tried to pull off Twelve Angry Men in under two minutes!

If my health was up to it I'd probably consider it. But having to drive to Londonderry (80 mile round trip) 5 days a week, trying to find a parking space and then having to walk - up hill - to the court house puts me off.

Also I don't think my constant coughing would go down well.

Getting there by bus could be an option, assuming a bus going up Bishop Street leaves from the bus station, which it probably does.

Anyway, it's all moot, as I am excusable as of right.

Jamiroquai are just a second rate Curiosity Killed The Cat knock off.

When we moved from Deeside we bought a house in Princes Risborough and Jay Kay was a close neighbour.

Have no views on his music but he's a thoroughly decent bloke.
