    Skiing and Ski Instructing, I don’t do it as a Job anymore, but I did for a long time.

    I’ve also raced a lot, and trained racers occasionally.

    I have skied well over 500 weeks in the last 25 years (which is a LOT as my dodgy knees can prove)

    TBH, that’s probably my best area of expertise too.

    Can inject Japanese knotweed to kill it, and cut down small trees with a chainsaw, small being 13 inches or less in diameter.

    Not an expert but i’m qualified to do both and enjoy them, they’re both satisfying in different ways.

    Pretty cool to see dead and dying knotweed actually, kill it kill it kill it.

    Knotweed is evil personified in the plant world. tobacco is evil personified in the human world.

    If i were my dad, I’d be internationally recognised for my ‘expertise’ in something to do with radio interference, or something

    but i’m not. i’m too young to be an expert in anything useful.

    although i know a bit about the adventure travel market, sustainable tourism, SEO and learning more about ski tech as we speak.

    Thanks, Neil, you just gave the same answer I was going to give to a really dumb question.
    Once upon a time I was trained as a scanner operator on a Crosfield 6250 drum scanner, and used to re-touch scanned images for high-end products, like Titleist golf, to a very high standard, but expert? Mmmm, nah, not really, and I haven’t done any for ages. Can’t even remember the keyboard shortcuts in Photoshop any more. 😐

    I don’t like to blow my own trumpet, but I’m an expert brass player.

    DO YOU SEE WHAT I DID THERE??!!??!!

    In all seriousness, Bb cornet to Grade 8/Diploma standard and now on Euphonium.
    Credentials of note:
    Last Night Of The School Proms, Albert Hall 1997
    National Brass Band Champions, Wembley Conference Centre 1994

    Kinda discovered women and beer after that, but recently fell back into it.

    Frankly, experts pale into insignificance when you have a man like Rusty Spanner doing a very difficult job by working with dementia sufferers.

    Respect to Rusty Spanner. 🙂

    I used to play euphonium Ox, three bloody miles I had to carry that sodding thing to school. Just as I was getting the hang of it they kicked me out when I broke it.
