Default OT Jury service. At 75? Are they serious? Again.

Some of you may remember that last September, at the age of 75, I was
summoned for jury service for the first time in my life. Since I can't
stay awake after 1:00 without having a sleep. I wrote to them, with
supporting evidence, that I was 75 and diabetic. I got off.

Now I have been "randomly selected" again for jury service. I'm aware
the random numbers can, in the short term, exhibit peculiar effects
but I'm still cynical.

I'll just repeat the process that worked last time. Roll on 76.

I did read somewhere that if you just ignore the letter they will find
somebody else.
Is this true?


The letter are not sent via tracked mail so you can always claim it was
never delivered but be aware that more and more post is being tracked to
your door by GPS equipped posties and barcodes on the item.
Just because you did not have to sign for it does not mean it was not a
tracked delivery.


As on numerous occassions we have received mail for neighbours and they
for us, GPS tracking accuracy is not enough to prove anything.
