I done it in 1995 at Northampton crown court, my case involved a murder in Oxford and it lasted 17 days and it was great, my sister was on the jury two months before me.

I've not but know blokes I used to work with who had done it 3 or 4 times over just a few years.

Weird how it works out who gets it and who doesn't.

I was lucky enough to get the Old Bailey, it was a murder case that lasted 6 weeks.

Well back in the 1980s here in the states I was asked to do jury duty at two or three times. I never served because my reason at the time was I was in college.
