Success!

Dear fellow blog watchers, I only have you to thank for the current success, for which tonight was.
This evening I attended a talk with barristers and solictors, and managed to a great degree to do what I can only call some "perfect" sucking up!

As the barristers talked I asked which BVC provider they would suggest, and the controversy about how you are not supposed to talk about which BVC provider is better than the other. Then I asked a QC about the LSC contract, and the future of the criminal bar.

I had a few glasses of wine, bordering onto being slightly drunk (Mr P you can wage your war whatever way you want, but barristers seemed to drink FAR more than I did this evening) I went around talked to pupils and their fears of gaining tenancy (which they don't like to talk about) Then before I approached Mr QC and he commented on that I was the only person in the room to ask the most questions, and obviously that I was quite interested in criminal law, and how I should drop him an email! I was soo chuffed with myself!!! I even mentioned dear Simon Myerson to the fellow QC and his views on the LSC contract and the future of the bar, and aftering a tad bit of trying to figure out how to say his honour Simon's last name was, he clicked and found it most interesting that he had a blog and that I had read his opinions!

So all to blog watchers, I would say thank you, for without your topics of current affairs I wouldn't have been able to impress the barristers (that shook my hand! cannot believe it!!) that I spoke to.

Thank you soo much :)
