It is a lesson I forget myself sometimes, and constantly have to remind myself about, but it is obvious we Land Rover owners are a passionate bunch, and express ourselves with gusto, and long may it be so.

You've done a lot of awesome things and had a lot of fantastic life experiences. A trade from the Navy speaks volumes also and would no doubt be a prized qualification from employers and you've seen that life should be a bunch of really positive experences. All of these life experiences though are not unique to people that either have or dont have formal qualifications. But you're right, people are people and not necesarily defined by any one feature of who they are or what they have. We're all Landy enthusiasts and the diversity brings a real richness to this community.

I failed year 10, now iz a lektrician:)

The thing that interests me is - still no doctors or lawyers! I wonder if there are any dentists?

Bachelor of Teaching counts as a 5 year trained teacher as a entry prerequisite is a previous Degree. They start 1 level higher on the pay scale and go up the ranks quicker. Double degree qualified.

The mechanical engineer thought that was fine as far as it went, but the body couldn't manage without the complex mechanisms which made up the arms, legs, trunk etc. But in the finish, they were persuaded that a civil engineer must have been in charge - because only a civil engineer would put a toxic waste pipeline through the middle of a recreational area!

except the control and data storage systems were designed by a chemical engineer, the civil engineer merely designed the box!

You probably ought to include the DSc and PhD in the bachelor degree, since they will all have that or equivalent. And if you give a half point to apprentices, then surely that should also be given to university students.

Got me on a technicality, John. You know there should be enough talent in the forum to design & build a better defender , :p , if only a certain red-head would allocate funds for construction. Bob

I was thinking the same thing. I think they prefer to drive BMW X5s, Merc MLs, Audi Q7s and Porsche Cayennes.
