I’m loving the heron pic in AR’s office.
A support heron, if you will.

AR's Office looks lovely.

ickky · 15/06/2022 14:51

I think the ET's should employ one of us to run the hearing. We have watched so many now, we are experts.

I am really having to stop myself from writing in the chat.

There is now witness statement or bundle link either <sigh>

User, the EJ is Beyzade Beyzade.

So good they named him twice! His own words.

thanks, in now.

I can see the chat and the other participants but no pic or sound - just a message saying no-one is presenting. What do I need to do. Watched AB case fine in past

sign in again and make sure that the vid and mic on the first page are not crossed out.

User76745333 · 15/06/2022 14:46

who is the employment judge?

SpinMeARiver · 15/06/2022 14:46

Ah bless you, Ickky, and yours is better than mine!

I'm in but no-one presenting- is this same for everyone here?

ickky · 15/06/2022 14:41

RMW sternly told not to interrupt by the judge when he is talking.

Ameanstreakamilewide · 15/06/2022 14:39

Ooh heck. 😲

Awkward!

SpinMeARiver · 15/06/2022 14:07

Yup @Motorina, this was from this morning's TT:

EJ: As we agreed yesterday, we're going into private session to discuss the hearing bundle, and we'll return as soon as we possibly can, so we can start with circumstantive issues as soon as possible. If we can go into private session please.

Just wonderful stuff. I can only imagine the EJ saying, 'WTF is this supposed to be?' behind closed cameras doors.

Motorina · 15/06/2022 14:02

SpinMeARiver · 15/06/2022 12:06

They've gone into private session to discuss the bundle(s) I think.

Tribunal Tweets will be back asap.

This made me laugh so hard I choked on my biscuit. Bundles, you say?

SpinMeARiver · 15/06/2022 13:37

I would say err on the side of caution regarding the sign-in pins (even though it's the same one), because of court/tribunal protocol.

Mine finally arrived, so I think we'll have them soon.

Ameanstreakamilewide · 15/06/2022 13:10

I've reported my post.

Ameanstreakamilewide · 15/06/2022 13:09

Somebody did yesterday.

dworky · 15/06/2022 13:06

I thought you weren't meant to post it publicly?
