But we had to hurry because I had to go into town to lodge some important documents so I can be admitted as a legal practitioner or a solicitor or whatever it is. The legislation remains a bit fuzzy for me.
I was nervous because I didn't want to be told that the forms I'd filled-in, were 'filled-in incorrectly'.
I went to the Supreme Court, and saw the Registrar, and lodged something and handed over some money for some reason.
Thus far, all okay.
Then I went to the Law Society, and had discussions with staff, and lodged a pile of somethings else and showed them the originals of this-and-that.
Thus far, all okay.

| Whomever surreptitiously placed this on my breast whilst I was unawares at the dentist, I'd like them to remove it. Pronto. |
It wasn't until I got home that I realised the WHOLE TIME I was sporting, emblazened on my chest, a Nemo sticker, saying "FINTASTIC!".
Surely the legal fraternity isn't that finicky!
ReplyDeleteEverything went fine because they were distracted by how fintastic you are!!X
ReplyDeleteDon't panic but I think that is the covert insignia of all supreme court judges. Expect a promotion, perhaps go and try on a few of those silly wigs. melx
ReplyDeleteYou really are fintastic, you know...
ReplyDeleteThey assumed you intend to practise underwater.
ReplyDeleteIt may be oxygen poor but the money is better.
Did the dentist's nurse know what you were up to for the rest of the day ....
ReplyDeleteLaughing out loud here. You could have only topped it off by having toilet paper stuck to your shoe and/or your skirt hitched into your undies ;-) Congrats on being admitted :-)
ReplyDeleteThat sticker will give you the edge over all other applicants. "Deidre, I want that woman with the Fintastic sticker whose child had impeccably clean teeth, stat!" Dental hygiene may well be the entry key to the gaping jaws of your law career!
ReplyDeleteThat is hilarious! Thanks for my morning laugh.
ReplyDeleteFabulous! :-)
ReplyDeleteOh that is just too funny! I'm all a chortle.
ReplyDeletex
classic!
ReplyDeleteToo funny alright! X
ReplyDeleteLittleMiss A-G,
ReplyDeletenot admitted yet. Still a long way to go, obstacles to jump over, people who may want to object etc. And I'd like to get some new shoes.
I think you and your family will be a breath of fresh air to the legal fraternity. Keep up the great work!
ReplyDeleteOops! One of the whippets was once found to have a Press Here To Squeak Me sticker stuck to his chest ... we never did find out how it got there!
ReplyDeleteBetter to be fintastic Nemo than the sharks that normally frequent the courts. How wonderful that you're getting admitted soon!! xx
ReplyDeleteMmmmn Dentist - scary. Form-filling - scary. Fins in the sea - scary not 'tastic'. But law - well that's heavenly - http://www.itv.com/eternallaw/

ReplyDeleteLawtastic!
ReplyDeleteLawtastic.

ReplyDeleteI actually snorted when I laughed at this one! And I needed that! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteThat was Finny ha ha who was the culprit?

Just catching up, Carmel. Bravo on becoming a fellow practitioner, my friend. You are so inspirational for the way you've managed to juggle study with raising 4 littlies. Well done! J x
