Actually Oleo, there's an equivalent to the German "Herr Eng." throughout Europe and there are a fair number in the UK. I have the dubious pleasure of being Eur.Ing. Genghis. [I seem to recall my illustrious forebear doing a much better job of impressing the Europeans than this, I must read up on his techniques.]

The problem with "Eur.Ing." is that it both sounds silly, and never fits into the box in forms. Roll on the day I finish my PhD and can call myself "Dr.", which is technically a lower qualification but at least people think that they know what it means.
