Squiggle, you must be right about the little boy's piggy bank

 

The question is more interesting than the answer for non-accountants. If the accounts are prepared in accordance with FRSSE (smaller companies) then it would only be disclosed in the company accounts if the £1,000 is material to the company which is unlikely. If the accounts are prepared on a non-FRSSE basis (larger companies) then it would need to be disclosed if the £1,000 is material to the boy which is much more likely. It's what is called a related party transaction which is disclosed as a note to the accounts.

Fascinating isn't it

Went out to see a client and it started raining while I was there. She said that she has washing out to dry for her daughter who's off to uni this weekend, so she rang her to ask if she could take the washing in, but the daughter is also out.

It was only a shower though.

 

Good afternoon a foggy morning here and no sign of the predicted sunshine breaking through as yet

El, lol, I have to say it doesn't sound especially exciting but it's good to go isn't it. Are your courses compulsory?

Yogi, good luck tonight, I think some light snacks might help, if you can stomach anything
It's going to be a long night
I'll have the news on first thing tomorrow morning, I hope things go your way

I've completed the final stitches on my advent stocking garland my friend doesn't know that I'm already working on another one as a surprise for her

Summer, it is compulsory for me to have training each year though as I'm not a registered auditor there isn't a minimum number of hours I have to do. This year I'm doing 5 half-day courses. The person I was chatting to yesterday is a registered auditor and does more like 20.

 

Oh my goodness that's a lot of course, he must be very patient. Do you get to choose which courses you do?

Summer, yes we do. We are expected at the start of each year to consider what we need to do and choose suitable courses. I go to a place which is only a few miles away as do many of the local accountants. I generally go on update courses or courses where I think I might get some benefit.

A small number of accountants get chosen each year by my institute to provide details of what courses we have attended. Those who are involved in audits tend to get looked at more closely. Accountants who get in disciplinary trouble will almost certainly get looked at very closely indeed.

 

Thanks Summer. DiL laughed when I told her the last time I was this nervous was when she was in labour with PB.

 

Lucky friend! I bet the stocking garland looks lovely.

 

Flying visit as PB is due to wake from her nap at any moment. Apologies if I suddenly disappear.

I guess it's important that you are all up to date with any changes.

Yogi, accountants who don't keep up to date could land up by giving incorrect advice to their clients si it is important.

 

News on another vote going on in Scotland, A result is expected later today and it's hoped that it will be a Yes.

(nothing to do with the independence referendum)

 

That is one YES vote I'm not opposed to.

Got to go now, see you later.

A BBC video clip posted today of photographs submitted for Astronomy Photographer of the Year.

James Woodend's is the last one on the clip and is amazing. This is a Youtube clip of it as well:

 You need to watch it full screen for the best impact.

That video looks interesting! I'm going to have to watch that on my iPad in a bit

I'm glad you at least get to choose El, that helps

Yogi I hope you've had a lovely day with PB and are coping ok with your referendum nerves

Evening all.

Summer, I had a great day with PB. She was a perfect distraction from the referendum. 

I hope you've had a good day.

 

Stunning photography, El.

Absolutely beautiful! Mr summer liked it too

Hi yogi how you doing?

I'm okay Summer, thanks.

How has your day been?

Good are you keeping busy? Has mr yogi paced a debt into the carpets yet?

I've had a good day thank you nothing eventful to report, bramble has decided to try to plonk her bum as close to my head as possible and didn't look amused when I forced her to move

I have kept busy all day, which was the best thing to do, and PB's smiles cheered me up no end.

lol Mr Yogi hasn't started pacing yet, but you can be sure he will! 

 Thank goodness Keira doesn't try to plonk her bum near my head!

 

Hi yogi and summer so hope its a no vote

Lol that wouldn't be good yogi I'm glad PB has kept you smiling today, what's her latest development?

Hi Ros how are you?

Hi Ros. I've crossed everything for a NO vote.

Are you still singing with the choir? Do you have any recitals planned?

fine thanks summer thank you - just busy in work how are you are you feeling better?

I have photographs of sons and their OHs around the living-room. Today, she decide to use her toothbrush (she has one at my house) to brush mummy and daddy's teeth in their photograph.

She still has her birdy fixation but we've noticed that she is eating more and more of the raisins and the birds are getting fewer. She has her own little packets of raisins but seems to prefer the bird's. lol

 

Starting this Tuesday after a break - Christmas concert in the  Parish church planned in December -parts of Handel's Messiah + other stuff

aww can't believe where the time has gone - how sweet

Lol what a cutie! And how thoughtful to want to clean her parents teeth does she let you brush hers alright?

Yes I am thank you Ros, much much better! My skin has gone haywire though, I'm covered in spots I think my immune system has certainly been challenged lately
Choir sounds good, how often do you rehearse?

I love Christmas concerts. I'm sure you will all sing beautifully.

I know Ros, she is seventeen months now and the time has just whizzed by.

She likes to brush her teeth, so we have no bother getting her to do it. She lets us "help" her.

When my immune system is low, I tend to break out in spots. Can you take something to boost your system?

every week summer for 2 hours - glad you are better - it was  a nasty virus

woowww it has -aww enjoy it -it goes by soo quickly

Yes, I've been taking a vitamin tonic especially for post illness/run down occasions and have several vitamins to take when it's all gone, as well as some Actimel.
I'm also eating more fruit & veg than normal.

I think it was a nasty one Ros, I've decided to get a flu jab this year now
Have you managed to avoid all the bugs that are currently going round?

I love every minute with her. She has a really sweet, happy nature - but she does have a determined streak. No idea who she gets that from.

Lol yogi

That should give you a good boost, and hopefully give you the strength to fight off future infections.

 You know me too well.

wellup to now hopefully - yes always get the flu jab -have to pay but worth it

going to go -

night yogi and summer - take care both

Lovely to see you Ros, sweet dreams

Lovely to have a chat with you again. Goodnight and sweet dreams.
