Lawyer Mel? Depends on your interpretation.
I did do a law degree a few years ago (for fun) and my tutors at the time took the view that any student of law was a lawyer. So in that respect I suppose I am. But I never practised.
Portia was the name my work colleagues gave me. Not sure whether it was just because I was a barrack-room lawyer or because they thought I was a woman dessed as a bloke. :wink: :roll:
