This little gem of an image depicting a young barrister standing on what might be Tower Bridge and wistfully staring at London’s tallest building cropped up a few days ago on the Bar Council’s Twitter feed.

Bar leaders thought it was an appropriate way of wishing good luck to those awaiting their GCSE results and they tweeted it with the message:

Never too early to think about a barrister career.

But surely Legal Cheek readers can come up with a better caption. Over to you …
