Monday 11th July 2011: Scone Local Court - Defended Hearing
Crime of not wearing bicycle helmet whilst riding bicycle
---------------------------------------------------------
Outfit: not suit (yuck!-hate), something 'Carmen-y', evoking 'tragedy-between-mens-loos-&-paella stand' - CHECK ✓
Documents: submissions for court, police prosecutor, me; copies of 'The Guardian' on catastrophic climate change; SAI licence; helmet manual; relevant cases; relevant legislation - CHECK ✓
Supporters: one 'wary' baby no.3 - previously absent for 'moments-like-these', looking like he's wondering how he ended up being only Abbott rellie in Scone!!!, + fab 'usual-suspect-chums'- CHECK ✓
Meedya Circus: media release sent to lots of potentials - PROBABLY NOT X
...will keep you posted!!!
Good luck, Sue! And give 'm hell, baby!

Good luck, Sue!
ReplyDeleteI'm up again in a few weeks time, so hope it goes well - I could use the precedent!
I am not going to wish you good luck... helmets has nothing to do with luck, they are just a bad experiment with negative outcome in it's 22nd year from political populisme.
ReplyDeleteLuck is a coincidence. So let sanity prevail...
Thank you everybody!!! - love your support - it's amazing
ReplyDeleteImmensely satisfying occasion in court whatever the outcome...
...why? because I was heard!
...awaiting deliberation - to be given to me tomorrow - will fill you in then!!
