In reply to Indy:
Good few years ago, when new in a (vet) practice, one of the farmers came in, wearing a suit.
Me: you're looking smart today
Him: I had to be, I've been in court all day
Me: oh, sh*t, what were you charged with? B*st*rd judges, pompous arseholes, etc etc.
Off he swept, face like thunder. At which one of the receptionists leaned over and said, 'He's one of the magistrates'
