I had to drop by the courthouse today to collect some paperwork. I went in via the front door,which is not my normal route, but I paused as I crossed the threshhold because there was a furtive group hanging around near one of the emergency exits.
On taking a closer look I discerned three ushers, a police officer, a Crown prosecutor and a couple of hastily turned backs.
The common factor?
All having a crafty fag**, of course.
