Scottish Law Society on the move

The home of the Law Society of Scotland for the last 39 years, Drumsheugh Gardens, is on the market, and hoping to attract offers of over £5.5 million.

What are the odds it’ll be snapped up and turned into yet another hotel? And for an added bit of trendiness, they can have it themed like a fantasy lawyers office / library, with law books lining the walls, quiet little alcoves for meetings and discussions, neat piles of important paperwork filed away in lovely units, or locked securely into impenetrable safes…in other words, nothing like reality at all!!!

The Invisible Royal

Ah, so the member of the Royal Family that we all know this is about won’t have to appear in court, as the Crown Prosecution service has allegedly blocked moves for him to give evidence, from the looks of it, by his own request.

Erm…why? We all know who he is, ‘cos the gagging order doesn’t apply overseas, and the US press has been having lots of fun, naming him and speculating. Surely it does him more harm than good to be able to stand up for himself in court? If he’s denied the allegations, and been questioned 3 times by police with no charges being brought, what more is there to it?

Honestly, it’s REALLY not as if we don’t know who he is!!!!
