My online shop is full of bold & colourful prints, homewares and cards.

A deeeeep dive into equitable accounting with worked examples from Cameron Stocks and I can be found in this edition of the FRJ (available online and in print). Strictly for the nerdiest nerds, insomniacs, and the poor souls who currently have a cold towel around the head trying to work it all out.
The winter edition of the FRJ is now online. Hard copies landing Monday.

Thank you @familybrief.bsky.social for the mention. Seen a few family bods join today so to explain a ‘starter pack’ is like getting your name on the list of solicitors LAs give to clients at PLO 🤭
Hello everybody! @familybrief.bsky.social has set up a family law starter pack. Ask him to hook you up: go.bsky.app/6UHzrtX

Interesting case - Simon Kolton KC (DHCJ):

W granted charging order for unpaid spousal and child PPs.

Fixed costs regime (CPR 45.23) applies to family cases meaning only fixed costs of £110 are recoverable unless court 'orders otherwise' (it did)

Essential reading for Fam and CoP bods.

Keehan J confirms no authority to declare an Autistic 15 year old should be detained under s.3 of the 1983 MH Act.

These cases are so deeply troubling.☹️

I loved seeing this show and you should all watch it! Sheen is brilliant, and it’s a great reminder of what it took to build the NHS

Brazil nuts, almost unique in our food supply, are not cultivated, but are collected in the wilds of the Amazon forest. Communities of indigenous nut harvesters maintain intact forests necessary for the trees. When you eat Brazil nuts, you are contributing to the conservation of Amazon forests. 🌏
