unfortunately I still have a hell of a lot of work to do still but mostly on the outside rendering,painting(walls and roof) I just need to find the time also
well today was the 119th day the father inlaw has been in the Royal Perth Hospital ICU since his accident,lots of things have gone wrong along the way....3 days a go he was able to move his right shoulder and lift his arm up about 2cm by himself....looks like he'll be able to get to a rehab hospital now and really get to work on him,he still has no feeling from the shoulders down and still has some open wounds from operations but they have left them like that so they are healing from the inside as they close up,he still has not spoken to us as he is on a ventilator and they don't know if that will change,but we're getting better at lip reading by the week.......
YAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO....
I hope he improves way
beyond everyone's expectations.

I must draw the short straw then, been called up at least five times and selected twice. Both were horrendous cases, one was abandoned after five days. The last one went the distance and the whole jury were exempted from further jury duty for about seven years I think.Quote:

I got selected 28 August last year and made it all the way up to the Court got a spot in the jury section. We all got I told beforehand it was gonna be an extremely long case up to 3 months. Melbourne or Australia's biggest drug bust about 10 years ago.
Loved every minute of it. Ended up finishing a few days after cup day. Would I do it again yep, for sure.
Must cases are no more than 5 days.
The payment is what I do not understand, if you get paid less than your job would pay how can anybody be expected to keep up with bills & Mortgage?Quote:

Wow that sucks!Quote:

I just had my Doctor write the Jury ppl a letter excusing me from jury duty.
Who knows Winnie we may have been sitting on the same case, I was a witness to an incident
that happened across the road from my place and was paid $5 to attend the Magistrates court in Melb
Nope not me... I've never done it. Got a letter once and forgot to do anything with it, never heard anything back.Quote:
