I rarely sit in crime, but would have thought that the Lord Chief might have better said nothing. I get that the action by criminal barristers will cause disruption, but the judiciary and the Bar have to rely on each others' goodwill and I fear that he has greatly damaged this

@DamianAStuart I see it as an honour Mr Stuart. If it is a true likeness, the horse will be aged, grey, short legs, not very athletic and have a penchant for Port

@Dowellenough @CrimeGirI That is so true Mr Burcher. Luckily I was only joking

I hear many of my colleagues have all suddenly and independently (co-incidentally at the same time as McFarlane and the Lord Chief) decided that in person hearings are in vogue. Remote hearings will help tackle the backlog & enable me to wear red trousers. What's not to like?

@ClareJR95 Good luck Miss JR. I shall never forget what my pupil master told me: "Get down to Ladbrookes and stick a fiver on Flying Lady in the 2:30 at Ascot for me whilst I work."

@DannyChapmanBR I have never held such a slight against your members. Never even a red book thrown in anger

I have had some good news professionally - I will be the Judge for the third and fourth placed play off between the losers of Depp v Heard and Vardy v Rooney. I have a nasty feeling that all four will lose and it will make my task more difficult

@aj2squared @pensionlawyeruk Jane I could not comment. I get people confused all of the time. I have even confused some experienced barristers with competent members of the Bar (the minority tend to be more memorable than the majority who are great)

Just one problem with this story - Harry Corbett (father of Matthew and creator of Sooty) and Harry H Corbett (Harold Steptoe) were two different men - msn.com/en-gb/health/m…

@MAMBarLife Former Judge Lord Meston is styled with both a location in the UK and India (although India is of course a Commonwealth nation)

Thrilled to see the list of new Recorders. I love to see their happy, enthusiastic faces like the first day at school. They can't even imagine the cynicism that will sweep over them after years of hearing submissions my 4 year old granddaughter could improve on

@byron_barrister Mr James, if you were the Judge on duty over the next couple of days (for those who don't know its me thanks to Mostyn ducking it), you would accept working hours that ruin our family life #welfareatthebarindeed

He came. The jolly chap in the red robes. But moving on from the Lord Chief attending the judge's Christmas Party, will Santa visit us tonight?

@JamesRoberts_ @MandyinListing @BrendatheUsher1 Both are well. I’ve just had an email from Mandy saying “it’s Sherry I like not gin” although calling me a moron was a bit strong. Brenda is quiet as she has worn so much PPE since you barristers came back to court that she can’t type tweets

Gave @MandyinListing a Barry Manilow CD & bottle of gin in the not so secret Santa today in the hope that I avoid being duty Judge over Christmas #mostyndidntbother
