It’s 16 December – happy birthday, John Selden (1584-1654)! Selden was a polymath, and much beloved of legal historians: the Selden Society for English legal history is named after him, and so are we. But did you know?… 🧵1/4

Magical winter wonderland in the heart of London.

@BarbaraRich_law Must be a parody. Surely????

@Liz_ORiordan To reveal my ignorance - is that crochet or knit? Or other?!

[Caroline Shea KC @caromashea]

@RoseUnwin Stephen. You have my constant admiration. Which doesn’t help except I hope to let you know that I see (only part of) what you do, and I see the (ditto) costs to you. And I see the immense gift to Joey, and the wider community and I’m hugely grateful.

An enthralling exhibition in an equally impressive venue - 18th C Townhouse. Very much worth a detour - thanks @MGooderham for bringing buildings and urban landscape to life so beautifully. Also wonderful to discover the intriguing interiors of @ASMorrigan.

St. Thomas's Street.

@giovanni_ulleri No votes in it. It’s as simple and as shocking as that.

@RoseUnwin Some siblings.

@Liz_ORiordan I’ve just started chemo for her2+ BC. Very interested in how movement/aerobic activity assists during and after. I’d love to hear more/explore the evidence. If the effects are as suggested, seems it should be prescribed alongside the chemotherapy.

@DinahGLRoseKC I loved it but by the third had list interest.

[Caroline Shea KC @caromashea]

@DinahGLRoseKC Just read it (the list) and thought I might use it to pass the next 20 weeks!

@childrenlawyer I was told by Kim Lewison, my then head of chambers, that in fact the advocate initiates the bow to the judge, as representative of the crown, who then returns the bow. I’ve aimed to bow first ever since.

Marc Gooderham strikes again - Deal pier luminous.

[Marc Gooderham @MGooderham]

Here's a painting of Deal Pier in the moonlight.

@C_RMacCallum I start 20 weeks on Monday. My thoughts are with you both. Here we go …

[Caroline Shea KC @caromashea]

@JaneyGodley Snap. 36 years today for me and mine. Also a ghastly year - but fighting in side by side. Congratulations!

[Caroline Shea KC @caromashea]

@MaryjaneFurniss @BrieQC @LottieJohn1 @kirby_pj Just found out today I can make this. Hurrah! See you all there.

@Sunflower002 @JaneyGodley Don’t know about perjeta - meeting oncologist next week.

@MaryjaneFurniss @BarbaraRich_law @benmrowe @VictoriaPeckham My mother was the same and although Scottish had a Yorkshireman for a father so I like to think she qualifies of a member of this impressive group of women for whom hard work and sacrifice where needed for their family was all.

@MaryjaneFurniss I’m about to go to Leeds for 10 days (trial). Same story. Good for the drought though.
