Im in court today - role reversal

[gemini]

Well after years standing in the dock giving evidence against societies wrong doers its my turn today to face he music.

Leeds County Court is my destination and I have to say Im a little nervous

Its the start of the official divorce financial settlement.

So either a short expensive route or a long expensive route?

Either way the next TVR could be some way off!

What I stuggle with is the fact that my future is now in the hands of 3 other people - The judge and 2 solicitors.

Oh well will know a bit more by this evenings posting time

ttfn (trying to maintain a smile!)

"On the day in question...

...the accused was pro-ceeding, in an orderly fashion, towards the h-alter. I h-observed the witnesses......"


Sorry, been there, done that, I just had a surreal image of a in court unable to diverge from usual mode

Gemini - just make your new motto for life 'The Best Things in Life are Free'. You'll be okay - just keep a sense of humour.

You're wrong about the three people deciding your future - it's your missus and both legal teams - the judge doesn't take any of your assets.

As someone one said, I'm not going to get married again, I'm just going to find someone I don't like and buy them a house
