this is the most animated I've seen Roux - he needs to put his indoor voice on my ear drums are bursting!

he ordered a hitman when on his phone - may as well be hung for a Nel as for a Reeva 

Roux's demeanour reflects the anger Pistorius' family and the accused himself feel at this prosecution tactic, so close to end of the case

really???????? 

desperation innit 

who brought the good doctor in and got the evaluation just a week ago 

#OscarPistorius Roux: Then he (Nel) goes to automatism, the defence is not saying automatism. (One down, it seems)

Roux says it's a premature application, since they have another witness on vulnerability still to come #oscartrial

if there is another witness think Judgie will deny the request - at this time

every time, every time he says Dr Voster I keep singing that nursery rhyme 

Roux submits there's no merit for sending Pistorius for observation - Vorster is just giving contextual factors #oscartrial

Roux says a second witness will be called to testify about his vulnerability and the "fight or flight" - and 30-day break will muck that up

another witness...I'm pleased I'm away 

As Roux goes to sit,judge prompts him to tell her who HE thinks the onus to prove disorder lies with.She's focused firmly on the law of this

he's got himself all worked up into a tiswas 

OMG you're visiting Scottyland aren't you - I'll be on my todd 

OP is crying again, like yesterday...proves the tears are all about him 

I'll only be missing Friday 

#OscarTrial Nel: there’s one thing I’ll agree with Mr Roux on, and that’s that we should not be emotional. BB

Nel was on that case 

go Nel  

#OscarTrial Nel explains that in the one case he referred to, he was the counsel. He was rouging that it not be referred. He knows the case.

I love his calm reasoning 

I'm out Thursday - got a Welsh friend who lives from German popping in and we're going to get tiddled shopping 

#OscarTrial Nel: I would also be emotional if I called a witness who left open the door for the referral of my client. BB

OMG just loving Nel's soft voice 

I can watch it up until 11.30 and then I have a school run.. 

#OscarPistorius Nel says it's a bit whack of Roux to say he has a poor understanding of case law. He (Nel) argued one of the cases

Judge asking more questions of Nel, than of Roux. @eNCAnews #OscarTrial

I have to go out about 1.45 today too...I hope they have an early finish 

me too - I've got lots to do 

He needs this in to back up his other witness 

Incredible that Roux predicted that the case would stop today. Who would have thought it could be at the hands of Nel.

she may adjourn for the day until she decides 

Nel: Vorster had confirmed she'd made a psychiatric diagnosis #oscartrial A mental illness can only be made y a psychiatrist.

Pistorius is looking rather pink, a muscle in his temple clenched, shaking his head slightly as Gerrie Nel sums up his arguments.

Interesting that Roux didn't deal with the timing of the report. On purpose I'd suggest.

Nel: "We started off by saying I'm only bringing this application to apply the law as it's been applied." #OscarPistorius

he doesn't want a second bite of the cherry...right Roux, just point them ion the right direction 

I should be a lawyer 

he does make me laugh without intending to 

I'm pleased I need a cuppa and the loo... *checks no GAD makes are about* 

especially in SA - 3 hour days lunch paid for bikkits what's not to like 

Roux did a good job of arguing law against Nel, but he didn't actually say why sending OP for observation would be a bad thing.

I think the hysterical rant didn't go down well 

I said she would adjourn for the day to decide.. I could have save them time 

off until later today....hope the suns shining where you are, it is here and I'm going out shopping
