That’s what I do. I also have a special Visa card, which I call a ‘netcard’ that I use for ordering on line.

Yep! I know – known as a QC. I have watched Silk and Judge John Deed *great big grin* and I am English.

It’s the soliciter you consult first.

Thanks anyway.

Hello there Mike(?) Welcome, I’m pretty new here too.Just had a quick look at the list:

B. Daniels – maybe.
R. Tovey – possibly
B. Whishaw – Definite posibility
Forget the rest in cluding B. Cumberbatch, he would be fantastic, but he’s too busy and has always made it clear, when asked, that he’d never play the Doctor – perhaps a villa…[Read more]

Me too. Sleep no more was the least enjoyable.

Everything in which Missy has appeared have been winners in my eyes.

Cancelling the whole thing would make me very sad indeed!

I meant to say. Don’t you love the recurring words: “Are you my mummy?” and my favourite: “Yes, we know who you are!”

All I wish is that the media would get…[Read more]

Have just read your post re: Lawyers etc. Obviously it works for Americans, but seems unnecessarily complicated to me.

As far as I know, we have Barristers (as you say taken from “The Bar”) who fight in court – silks – all of whom have different preferences. Some murder, some tax invasion etcetera. Solicitors are who one goes to…[Read more]

@allonsy

Indeed you have. All of us it seems are hopeless cases – thank gawd!

“I guess there’s a line in the sand somewhere. Hmm, now where was that line in the sand from? :)”

Very droll. *big grin*

@lisa

I had to smile. The thought of ‘crusty sleep’ from your eyes growing into monsters, doesn’t exactly make me feel good. *grins*

Rather scary methinks?

As for children finding it hard to grasp, you could be right, some of the episodes are a little complex.

Did I say hello? If not, HELLO.

Spotonski and well said.

A gold star for you.

Thumbs up Son of Puro. I think that you mum will find the book very entertaining. It’s got quite a twist.

Cheers,

Missy

Fortunately I have a modest fund (which I save for) especaiily for DVD’s, which means I buy the series, therefore no problems.

Missy

@pedant

You’ve got his description off to a tee!

Vandal, would fit the bill too!

@ob-wan

I thought so, how very confusing. In the old days – according to Dickens – ‘lawyer’ was used instead of Barrister.

It was possibly changed to Barrister and Soliciter to avoid confusion. Unfortunately I never know which is which in American programmes.

Missy

@puroandson

So sorry! I can’t find the post and would still like to know the answer.

Missy

Having put this on the Book thread and receiving no reply, I thought I’d bung it on here where it might be seen.

Has anyone read or listened to THE LAST SHERLOCK HOLMES STORY, by Michael Dibdin?

Fascinating and very clever.

Cheers,

Missy

Well, you’re entitled to your opinion zepyr. I would ask one thing, could you find different adjectives please.

Cheers

Missy
