I loved my jury service. One of the defendants in a case I was on had hid his gear up his arse (as you do), and had a thick wire wrapped round it. When he was caught and the OB asked him to pull the wire out from his arse the gear didn't come out so he changed his story when interviewed under caution. He explained that he had stayed at a mates house and didn't have a belt for his trousers so his mate loaned him the wire to tie through his belt loops. While he slept he thought that somehow the wire had unwound, found its way through a hole in his pocket and up his arse, and he didn't notice until the OB asked him about it the following afternoon. It sounded feasible to me, but the lad laughing as he read it out probably went against him
I enjoyed my Jury Service an all. Although I lost money as I was self employed at the time. About two years ago now. I think it was £60 a day and a food allowance. I took me own food and cashed my meal tickets in to try and bump the dough up a bit.
My mate got a murder case - took about three months - he was on BT so laughing as full wack.
Being on the board that's what i'm hoping for, however not keen on the murder case though, trouble is something like a complex and long winded fraud case i know i'll be a sleep
