Chuffed

I had an email from S today including this:-

Last week I was informed by the Advisory Committee of my county that my name is being forwarded to the Lord Chancellor for appointment.

That is far from the first such email that I have received,and it gives me enormous pleasure to hear that the blog has, at least to some extent, hit its target of lifting some of the veil of mystery and incomprehension that has plagued the Magistrates' Courts for too long. Welcome aboard, S. It's hard work at times, but boy, is it rewarding!
