For crying out loud! ( Where's the smiley that's tearing its hair out? )

We waited around all morning and then we got sent home at 12 noon today. The trial we were on has collapsed.

One of the witnesses decided she did not want to give evidence and they cannot proceed with the trial without her so that's it, trial abandoned.

I had felt much better going into court this morning, like I was there to do a job, there for a purpose rather than just hanging around. I should have known it was too good to be true shouldn't I?

There are two more trials scheduled for tomorrow so we have to report back to court at 10.30am. Another jury will have to be selected and the whole damn charade starts again. Aaaaarrrrrgh!!

I'm not a celebrity but........GET ME OUT OF HERE!
