It's all 50 Shades of Grey's fault. It's whetted women's appetite for saucy stuff!

I know why they do it, but estate agents who have posters of properties they have sold really annoy me. You go in, ask to look at a house only to be told it has been sold. They then offer to take you round a **** flat you would never in a million years consider buying.

I've been called up for jury duty today, not happy about it. Whoever it is, they're already guilty as far as i'm concerned.

It doesn't bode well for the accused to have an angry Scotsman that is not long back from America

So shoplifting a 60p ice cream cone?

Ikobo - Guilty

The real cheek of it is "Maximum claimable for loss of earnings - ?64.95 per day, assuming up to ten hours". I'm not going to say what I earn on here, but put it this way, i'm going to hurt this perps chances of freedom as much as he's hurting my wallet.

This is what you get for voting.



Right? Is that how it works?

You just know you are going to get someone wanting to grind that trial out to get the extra ?65 a day, no Neo games for you for a couple of weeks bud

Never understood the whole jury duty thing, is it compulsory? what are the consequences of just not bothering? If the maximum you can claim is less than you earn then that's not right, I'd pretend I never got the letter.

Edit - I've just considered the possibility that you still get paid from work aswell, am i right? I'd grind it out.

I'm self employed, if i'm not at work i'm not getting paid.

You may be able to appeal for an exemption of doing it or possibly (maybe not a good idea) but cheaper to pay the ?1K fine and tell them to bugger off (I don't know what other repercussions could be)
