Instead of writing my lectures I've decided to rate ships involved in contract law cases

The Great Peace: bad at maps. just trying to help 8/10

The Achilleas: too popular for its own good 5/10

The Hongkong Fir: suffered many serious breakdowns. #relatable 5/10 (also apparently too shy for photos)

The Super Servant Two: strong. majestic. at the bottom of the ocean 7/10

The Peerless (both): did their jobs perfectly. hilarious misunderstandings not their fault. excellent name 11/10

The Moorcock: got too (moor)cocky 4/10

The Eurymedon: everyone loves a stevedore 6/10

shout-out to The Universe Sentinel: great solidarity with #strikeforuss but let's try to avoid extortion next time. 7/10

The Agas Map of Early Modern London has some lovely depictions of sites in legal London. Here are the four Inns of Court, for a start. I hadn’t realised just how far they were from the city centre - Gray’s Inn (top left) is positively rural! [1/7]

On the left is Lincoln’s Inn, with its fields and grazing cattle, and on the right is the Temple - inc. Temple Bar, Temple Church, and the wharf where lawyers would have hired boats to travel to court… [2/7]
