    Yes, but looking back I'd have done better with dolphins or helicopters.

    Counsellor: What?

    Anchovy: (boldly) Lion taming.

    Counsellor: Well yes. Yes. Of course, it's a bit of a jump isn't it? I mean, er, chartered accountancy to lion taming in one go. You don't think it might be better if you worked your way towards lion taming, say, via banking?

    Anchovy: No, no, no, no. No. I don't want to wait. At nine o'clock tomorrow I want to be in there, taming.

    Counsellor: Fine, fine. But do you, do you have any qualifications?

    Anchovy: Yes, I've got a hat.

    If you're going anywhere near the sea, Dive Master is always a good one. Does help if you can back up with stories of derring-do on the high seas and expert cunnilingus skills.

    started a topic Going on Tour & Job titles.

    Going on Tour & Job titles.

    leading on from a post Xenophon made. When going 'on tour' with a gig what job roll do you tend to use ? In the past I've been

    A Beaver trainer - always good for a laugh
    An English teacher - works very very well
    A club DJ - works very well in the right situation

Working...
