Ol' chap

I do believe I heard someone describe it that way to me and I forgot.
For those Yanks that would like to understand the Queen's language check

In the UK lawyers are called barristers. There may be a further

They had the wigs, robes and all. Very eloquent speaking. Not like our

Barristers practice law before the bar -- that is, in court. Solicitors
practice law, but do not appear in court. The distinction is peculiar
to the UK. In the US, lawyers is lawyers.
