 Much of the practice of modern financial law may be inane, [[tedious]] and confusing, but at least you don’t get sent to the companies office to file something with the express intent of having it thrown back in your face because you didn’t need to file it. This was a work-a-day experience for a young clerk in the last century.
-Successive UK Companies Acts had required [[security interest]]s granted by UK companies to be registered at companies house. Entertainingly, you had exactly 30 days from the date of the deed creating the [[charge]] to do it, on pain of your security being rendered finally, fatally, and irrevocably void and, should you have been the one so lacking in the fastidious qualities all solicitors must have as to forget, your own sorry hide being summarily executed by the staff partner after a brief show-trial.  All excellent fun.

Should you have been the one so lacking in the fastidious qualities all solicitors must have as to ''forget'', your own sorry hide would be summarily executed by the staff partner, after a brief show-trial. All excellent fun.
