    Accountancy seems to be one of the professions which is still telling people that they can get into it without having to go to uni.

      To him being a sexist plonker.

      Which also has a lot to do with him still being a virgin.

            Plonker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

            A Dictionary of Slang and Unconventional English in 1949 recorded the term as "low" slang for penis, "since ca. 1917". The term remains in recent use with that meaning.
            By 1966, the term had also acquired the meaning of a man who let his girlfriend sleep with his male friends,.

              I thought the reason he was still a virgin was because he is a short-arse, ex-communist squirrel felcher with no sense of humour or social skills that needs his Mother's approval before he can date a girl.

              Oh well, you learn something new every day.

                You don't need to go to university to do well in life. You just need natural charm, wit and athleticism so you'll have half a chance of marrying upwards.

                    Jeez have they changed the name of that place again!

                    When I was at Cambridge (University, the real one) we used to look down our noses at the plebs in "Cambridgeshire College of Arts and Technology" (CCAT).
                    Then it became "Anglia Higher Education College" (AHEC).
                    Then "Anglia Polytechnic"
                    Then "University of East Anglia" (I think),
                    and now "Anglia Ruskin University".
