Thought you might like this Tom, it's not too long but wonderfully written.

http://www.bailii.org/ew/cases/EWHC/QB/2018/1258.html

Can't choose a favourite between

" he regards telling the truth as simply no more than a lifestyle choice."

and

" a conclusion which fully reflected what little objective fact he could salvage from the tangled web of deceit which the parties had so enthusiastically weaved when giving their evidence."

Excellent! My favourite line was "the details of the operation and profitability of which were but lightly touched upon in the tax returns of the defendants".



Have you read any John Mortimer? Beautiful descriptive prose peppered with biting wit make whatever he writes leap off the page. Truly a master of the art.

A wolflike creature was stalking livestock in Montana. Authorities have no idea what it is.

Quite a character, very clever bloke, won Celeb Mastermind once. Suffers from Meniere's Disease (sp?) and Aspergers Syndrome.
