It was another busy session down at Wharf Chambers as we were augmented by the gang there for Graham’s 60th birthday celebrations. It looked like everyone had a fine time! And great to welcome back the old South Yorkshire representatives to add some goth and cowpoke flavourings to proceedings. Things went a bit weird and psychedelic at one point until Pancetta realised the echo effect on the mixer had been accidentally (really?) switched on. But some folk seemed to be digging it... Anyhow, here’s what we heard:
