My sitting as a magistrate is an important part of my life and I have missed it but, of course, it would be unfair to my fellow magistrates and also to those appearing befor us if I returned before I was fit enough to give cases the attention and concentration they deserve. Yesterday was therefore my first sitting since my surgery.
Ann thinks it was too soon and that I would be exhausted but I promised her I would get cabs both there and back home and that I would try to avoid a late sitting. Also I took a sandwich with me rather than going out at lunch time.
It was a slow start to the day but once we got started it was an interesting day. We finished at about 3:15 and I was offered a lift home which I gratefully accepted.
I was tired but not excessively so & I came home with a sense of another milestone having been passed.
