Overheard in the High Court today (paraphrased):
Barrister: "We have reached an agreement, My Lord. We propose to draft an order and send it in."
Mr. Justice Pumfrey: "Very well.I would like to see both of your signatures on it, and I don't want to see you again."
(COMIC PAUSE)
B: "Is that ever, my Lord?"
MJP: "If you have another client, you are most welcome to come before me again."
