Do they compare you to *Sharks* over there?

Well, the standard joke is that this lawyer falls into the sea and before he is rescued, a damn great big maneating shark comes swimming up to him. Instead of chomping him up, the sharks puts him on his back, swims up to the side of the ship and puts him back on board. Noone can believe this so they ask the lawyer why the shark didn't eat him but rescued him instead. The lawyers just says that it was professional courtesy.

Actually, English lawyers arn't called sharks cos we are (a) useful members of society, (b) a damn sight cheaper than US lawyers and (c) not thieving lying rotten bindippers
