hey there miss muffet!

I did Jury service a few years ago and like you DIDNT want to do it!! I had sleepless nights and anxiety about the whole thing!!!

THANKFULLY lol I was booked to go on a course on the fourth day of my service, so I had to take a note with me saying so so i didnt have to attend that day!! It got me out of a big case!! YAY!! and then in the second week there were'nt enough trials for me to be needed so I didnt have to go!

In the first week....I spent the whole time in the 'huge waiting room' doing nothing the first day!!! man I was sooooooo bored!!!! I learnt my lesson after that day though and spent the rest of my time there reading or doing preparation stuff for nursery!! lol I had complete strangers helping me just because they wanted something to do! and it certainly started off a good many conversations!! So after a very boring first day....I got to chat to some very interesting people, read a good book AND got quite alot of things done for nursery too!

So my advice to you is.....take a book or somthing to do! other than that you just have to grin and bear it and hope you dont get called into court!!! Fingers crossed for you!!!!! :scared: :crossfing :crossfing :crossfing :blush:
