A week ago I received a phone call offering me tenancy. On Monday, I formally accepted. I am over the moon that I get to join Fenners as a tenant - I’ve not stopped grinning!

I had the opportunity to go back to UEA Law School earlier this week to participate in a panel event about the Bar. I was thrilled to see so many students attending and, once I got over the surreal feeling of being on the other side the lecture theatre, had a fantastic time

Solid start back to work this morning when I forgot my purse and Apple Pay wouldn’t work on the car parking meter. Very grateful for the complete stranger who came over and paid it for me

After two weeks in pjs thanks to Covid, putting my wig and gown on (even if it was to sit in my house) was a bit of a shock to the system this morning

The phone call you don’t want at 2:45 on a Friday is that your client has been picked up for breach of bail and you need to be at the court in 15 mins. And just when I thought all my Attendance notes for the week were done 🤦🏼‍♀️

Yesterday, I successfully completed my first jury trial!! I’d been saving this bottle since January as I was determined I’d do one this year. It’s now open!

Returned home from Christmas to find I’ve got no WiFi and 2-3 days until and engineer can come out. This just means I go back to eating cheese instead of work, right?

When I was in the Mags Court every day, this baby of a book carried me through all my battles. I’ve been asked to spread the word that you can get this from 28th March below with 30% off using code ALAUTHC4 - might be handy for pupils & junior tenants❤️ global.oup.com/academic/produ…

It may have been 2.5 years since I was Called to the Bar, but I finally got to celebrate yesterday at Middle Temple. So much has changed in that time, and I’m incredibly grateful for all the opportunities I have been presented with.

I had the pleasure of being taught Trial Advocacy by Judge Carroll. He was adamant I would pursue a career at the Bar from the first time we spoke, at which point I didn’t intend to do so. He was a driving force behind my career choice and I’m eternally grateful for his guidance
