What an extraordinary five weeks it been with the final session for jury service just ending
The experience was very trying but worthwhile and I still believe the system of trial by jury is still the best
The time spent with eleven other randomly chosen jurors in all their diversity shows how sometimes we forget about the variables in people because we surround ourselves with friends who generally share similar views and values
However to have such diversity underpinned by the common elements of fair play and justice was hearting
I would not rush back into the experience because it completely puts your life on hold for the five weeks but at the same time I would not do anything to avoid any future call up
