The day begins by travelling from the Royal Courts of Justice at Temple Bar, London, to Westminster Abbey for a special service to pray for guidance in their judicial undertakings. Then the line of judges process the short distance to the Houses of Parliament (everyone here forming an orderly queue to get in), where they are treated to the Lord Chancellor\u2019s Breakfast. This goes back to a 16th-century custom of fasting before taking communion at a church service, so it was deemed good etiquette for the Lord Chancellor to offer the assembled judges a bite to eat afterwards. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"footer\" style=\"font-size:12px\">GETTY IMAGES<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Judges descend on the Palace of Westminster for the start of the
