Family Barrister at QEB. Desperate to build up a twitter feed that doesn't consist of Gilmore Girls fan accounts followed at aged 15.

In a moment of September back-to-school madness I've signed up for the London marathon. I'll be attempting to keep pace with my father @anshampton, who has multiple marathons under his belt vs. my 0.

@ChristieEOC It's....about time?

If you look very closely, you may be able to identify some of the very subtle differences between party conventions in the United States and party conferences in the United Kingdom.

I will happy return the 100% refund on my ticket for today to the ECB if Stokes calls @jimmy9 back up to overtake Warne. How do I contact @benstokes38 to sort this out?

From a career that felt endless comes a legacy that will be timeless 👏

Lost in the hubbub of the Euros on Wed is the fact that the last of my remaining teenage sporting heroes (now @andy_murray has quietly bowed out over the weekend) steps onto the pitch for the last time.

Taking small comfort in the prospect of some excellent sports montages...

45 seconds per answer in this debate is just not enough to get a reasoned answer out…

[Alexandra Hampton @AlexandrHampton]

We're all the better for having wonderful colleagues to bounce ideas off, and @hrmcampbell is no exception. Very happy he is joining us today:- https://t.co/X3AKjpnMmE

If you’re preparing for pupillage interviews this year do come along - if only to watch me back in the hot seat after 5 years and being reminded myself that interviews can be daunting!

[Women in Family Law @WiFLaw]

Our popular pupillage interview workshop is back for the third year running!

Details, including how to register, can be found on our website: https://t.co/aQVG6QEb3r

This is extraordinary.

Financial pressures and cutbacks in the courts were very well illustrated in 2 person Court of Appeal when we were told by the Court that due to cuts they had to share a copy of the White Book and furthermore it was a 2022 White Book

I joked with @JoeRainer_ about how glad I was the Supreme Court waited until just after I landed from holiday to hand this down. I’ve now barely managed to acclimatise before @michael_allum has published a (comprehensive) summary doing my homework for me!

[Joe Rainer @JoeRainer_]

With his signature concision and thoroughness, @michael_allum has turned round this excellent primer/summary on Potanin in less than half a day - the proceedings below, the ratio of the UKSC majority judgment, and its likely impact going forward.

@tombain I don’t think any of us are to be fair, Christmas joy in the household hangs in the balance

About to embark on my annual battle through the shops after missing the present ordering deadline. Some Amazon packages snuck under the wire ordered directly to my parent’s home. My mother:

Spending my Saturday being reminded that there is a very real reason I avoided career choices involving hands-on skills. I’ll see everyone after I’ve emerged from this pile of wood in the New Year.

[Alexandra Hampton @AlexandrHampton]

You’ll hopefully walk away with answers to those queries, but you’ll definitely walk away with a QEB umbrella (seriously, please take one, I don’t want to carry any full boxes back…)

[Fiona Stewart @FStewartQEB]

Repping QEB with @AlexandrHampton at the National Pupillage Fair, please come along with all your queries!

My 2023 resolution “out of office = (mostly) no access to internet” has once again delivered. 4,100m of altitude does wonders clearing the cobwebs…

[Alexandra Hampton @AlexandrHampton]

England being the only northern hemisphere team left in the tournament is the only evidence you need that the #RWC2023 draw is a shambles.

[Alexandra Hampton @AlexandrHampton]

After watching probably the best half of rugby I’ve ever seen played by France / SA I’m going to give this a resounding no.

Dare to dream? 👀
