Allison's case is due to be heard later this month and given the delays and attempts to have the case struck out, as well as the addition of direct discrimination based on GC beliefs to the case, costs have mounted.

The case is scheduled to run for 20 days (5 to 10 days being the norm).

Ben Cooper QC is representing Allison.

I'm off to plant some more flowers to really catch the sunlight that no doubt will be shining during the 20 days of her case. I thought I had enough, but more are needed because of the extension, unfortunately, which has left a bit of a bare patch!

Lovely day for some gardening, just after pay day

So nice to get the old trowel out. Planted a moderately cheap bulb. I'll save the other one for next week.

Digging done!

Also done some gardening. I think this is the case where the rubber meets the road.

Given the time allocated by the courts and the 30 plus witnesses being brought by Garden Court and Stonewall it's going to be incredibly intense and eye opening.

Lovely sunny day here so planting some more daffodils.

If its anything like Mayas case it will be riveting. I would also contribute to have tweeters there and/or a transcription.

Yes. As discussed elsewhere the costs are extraordinary as is the complexity of the case and what's at stake.

I’ve done a bit of gardening this morning too. I’ve popped a few rockery plants in my Stonewall.

Yes, I came on to say that there is another appeal for funding from Allison. Have just dug, hopefully she can reach her target.
