Harry hot pawed it back from London so his owner could vote shortly before polling closed...

Legal London is looking lovely.

@NickJRishwain He's currently focusing on hardcore academic science stuff, which can just about cope with newspaper articles and blogs, in terms of mainstream content.

When he pivots to social sciences, it's going to get wild.

X?
TikTok?
OnlyFans?
😬

But, heck, they're all references...

Good morning Woolwich!

#legalgeek

[Richard Parnham 🏳️‍🌈 @RichardParnham]

It's my first #LegalGeek tomorrow for *ages*.

Last time I attended, all kinds of mayhem ensued, including *that* incident with a Donkey pinata...

Me and @HenryFingerhut 's talk will not involve pinatas.

Instead, we're talking barrister tech.

10am, workshop room 2.

Say hi!

News: First-tier complaints rule changes should help everyone improve

We’re consulting on how first-tier complaints are handled.

We want your views on proposed rule changes, data collection, and where guidance is needed.

Final call for tonight's Tech at the Bar research launch event.

We're at capacity in-person (so please don't rock up at BSB towers, expecting to get in) - but there's an online option. You'll get a Teams link when you register.

Having worked on a @sra_solicitors study of tech in the solicitors' profession, I've enjoyed reading the @barstandards first ever in-depth study of tech at the Bar. Not for the first time, we're seeing patchy tech take up, and a low bar (as it were) of what amounts to tech itself

[Bar Standards Board @barstandards]

Our new Technology and Innovation at the Bar report is live!

The report looks into how barristers use technology and what stops them from adopting it more widely.

We provide recommendations to support technology awareness and reduce uncertainty around new tools. Read more: https://t.co/lxvJneR3sY

Scenes from legal London.

First gig of the year booked. And it's a retro banger.

You can blame the Glastonbury legends set from 2022.

[Richard Parnham 🏳️‍🌈 @RichardParnham]

Playtime.

[Richard Parnham 🏳️‍🌈 @RichardParnham]

@markchristie @joncoupland I'd seen one of those in Cathays Lidl earlier this week, and paused... "Could I? Is there room for one?"

No, as it happens, but it was a close thing.

[Richard Parnham 🏳️‍🌈 @RichardParnham]

I've just bottled some homebrew county wine I first set off in fermenting in 1993 and has been resting since.

I'm not a wine conneseir (it gives me heartburn) but this seems like drinkable sweet plonk.

If I go blind / mad overnight, please send help to Cathays, Cardiff...

[Richard Parnham 🏳️‍🌈 @RichardParnham]

Good morning from Cardiff.
