Your Honour.

My client was enjoying a sunny day shopping in Hereford, and he chose  
a Sunday to avoid the queue's just before Christmas. He was  
aggravated because he was just about to buy a "My little archery set"  
for his son's present, when this man, with wanton and reckless  
Welshness I must add, bought the last one in the shop, and then  
taunted him with "It's mine now, innit" and "Listen boyo, first come  
first served - stick that in your Cwmaman and smoke it butty!"

The fight that ensued ended up with my client running off with the  
Archery set after a tussle. He then ran off, and remembering the law,  
shot Emyr "Taffy" O'Jones dead with the archery set as he went to  
enter the churchyard after him.

We plead innocent to murder, and remind the court of the law.

Three times three
What brought they from the foundered land
Over the flowing sea?
Seven stars and seven stones
And one white tree
