Afternoon all.
Well, that was not half as awful as I feared. Got there at 9.15. Met solicitor who did some more work on my accountant's figures. Called first at 10. CHarge read out. Stood up and said Guilty. Solicitor does his stuff (about 1 minute). Bitof chuntering amongst the magistrates.
12 month ban and £200 fine.
Could have been worse.
I was in there for all of three minutes.
Mrs Nick ran me into Chester and then took the Boy swimming. She seems unfazed by the outcome, in part becuase she learned first thing that one of her students (' nice smiley lad') was run over by a bus yesterday and killed.
Kind of puts my woes into perspective.
Thanks again for all your kind words..
PS Jolly glad to have the solicitor there. I was amazed at the spin he put on the whole thing. I managed to avoid telling him that the local Judge told me some gossip about him too!!
