Unauthorised use of nine metres of ribbon, and the tying of an excellent bow while unsupervised.

Mabel QuillPresiding

At 04:12 the accused was found in the wrapping hall in circumstances the wrapping hall describes as “entirely his own doing”.

The bow is not in dispute. It is, by any measure, a very good bow.

Evidence

  • Nine metres of ribbon, recovered.
  • One bow, photographed, admired, and entered into the record.
  • A statement from the accused reading, in full: “Bramble was framed and also it was excellent.”

How are you hearing this?

Alone is a complete hearing. With the household, everybody gets one vote and the court waits for them.
