Dorothy Says - Dot is a partner at a big law firm with acidic observations about what goes on.
Junior Junior - Our baby barrister blogger slowly comes to grips with the mysteries of the bar.
Peach Melba - Dazzling, with a finely tuned Yarraside snout.
Procrustes - The columnist who also blogs.
Student-at-Large - Small students with large opinions.
Theodora - Theodora was married to Justinian, and despite a shaky start in life now runs the empire like Mrs Thatcher.
Unrobed - Reporting on unhealthy obsessions.
