I went to Gloucester Crown Court today on a trip to see what it was like inside the courtoom, and what a rubbish day I had.
Firstly, we watched 4 little cases all under an hour all saying "Oh, is your name this, come back in a week for your sentence."
I had one problem with that: my seating was poor. I even drew a picture. It seemed half of my seat was missing. Look at my picture:
(Sorry for poor quality)
Now, I was sitting where the red dot was (all the blue dots are people). As you can see, my seat had a wall/pillar thing sticking into our backs, making our seat awkward and whatnot. Not only that, but I had a killer whale just to my right infront of me. Then to my left, some girl who doesn't know how to brush her hair.
An hour passed, and we were let out to have a break and some fresh air. The usher realised we were really uncomfortable, and would not stand the next two hours seeing someone get sentenced, sitting on such poor seats, so she sent us up to the public gallery.
Much better seating, but it was sooooo boring! They droned ON and ON and ON about a latex glove having DNA on. It looked so boring for the judge and the jury and all them.
At the end, the judge says to us, "I hope you had an intresting day." Well I say:
Balls to it!
The teacher praised us at the end for how well we coped. Hope you enjoyed my wonderful thread.
