Sanny, you get that in all walks of life but it doesn't mean you are any less worthy of a title if you are one.

 

There was a well respected Surgeon in Halifax Hospital struck off recently because he had been operating on people for donkeys years and he had never done any training or got qualifications and the pillark nearly operated on me, but I had a run in with him because of his attitude, I don't like people who look down on others

When I'm climbing I'm a tree surgeon,

When I'm felling, thinnig etc I'm a wood cutter,

When i'm not doing any of that i'm chipping so I'm a chipper bitch!
