It's about time they started conducting trials all year, instead of leaving time for a bit of huntin' and shootin' at the relevant time of year. The taxpayer didn't pay for all those courthouses so they could sit empty. Carina22 23:36, 26 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Contradiction as to when the custom began

edit

These two statements are contradictory:

"The legal year commences at the beginning of October, with a ceremony dating back to the Middle Ages in which the judges arrive in a procession from the Temple Bar to Westminster Abbey for a religious service..."
"The ceremony dates back to 1897..."

Which is it? Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 22:09, 23 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
