I've been looking at some of my institute's disciplinary proceedings. They are generally related to the work chartered accountants have done (or should have done) but not always.

So someone convicted of any criminal offence can expect to be fined or excluded from the institute. For instance someone found guilty of driving a vehicle after consuming alcohol over the prescribed limit was fined by the institute over £1k.

Doesn't have to be a criminal offence, can be anything which can be regarded as not acceptable behaviour by a member. For instance, someone who used offensive language without cause at a client was fined after the client made a complaint to the institute - fine plus costs £9k.

Good evening everyone

Weather has been wet, windy and chilly.

Squiggle, I hope you’ve been able to stay cosy indoors.

Moonie, I’m glad your migraine has lifted

Gosh El, your computer is giving you a lot of work

Your institute sounds very strict.

I hope everyone has had a good day

Hi Yogi

It’s catching

Thank you

I had another early this morning but my migraines only seem to consist of a short period of impaired vision, wavy lines and on occasions, a mild headache 🙂

Moonie’s Mallet Yogi? 😉

My day has been very sedate. I hope you’ve had a good day

Hi Moonie

I’m glad your migraine wasn’t the excruciating, prolonged type

lol I think we’ll give El some time to sort it out before you get out the mallett

Good morning everyone it's another wet and windy day to come, looking drier for next week hopefully.

Enjoy your day everyone

Good morning everyone

Cloudy and raining here. As with Squiggle, next week's forecast is drier.

No reply from the payroll s/w people to my problem, so still unresolved,

I hope everyone has a good day

Good morning everyone

It’s wet but not to windy here

Like Squiggle and El next week is set to be much drier

El, it’s about time you got that reply

Have a lovely day everyone

Good morning lovelies happy weekend

aw Moonie, migraines are awful! I hope you’re feeling better now

it’s vaccination day for my mum! I’m just having a cuppa before I go pick her up.

I hope you’re all well, warm, dry and comfy

Good morning Sweet

A happy weekend to you too 🙂

I am feeling better now fankoo

Oh, the best of luck to your mum. I’m sure the vaccination will go fine 🙂

All okay here fankoo, I hope it is with you and Miss Bramble too 🐕🐾🐾

A happy weekend as well to Moonie and Summer

Sometimes I get the aura symptoms of a migraine with a touch of nausea but it doesn't develop into a full migraine. I sympathise with those who suffer from migraines

Just a coincidence. The British actress Madeleine Carroll is in two films currently on the television. Talking Pictures is showing "White Cradle Inn" (1947) and BBC Two her best known film Hitchcock's "The 39 Steps" (1935). I've seen the latter many times, superior to remakes and very enjoyable.

A rare Amazonian cactus known as a moonflower at Cambridge University Botanical Garden has attracted world wide attention as it is expected to bloom. It's a rare event as it only blooms once at night and lasts for 12 hours,

It is a beauty though El

Good evening all

It has rained all day and been cold and windy.

Hope the vaccination went well for your mum, Summer

Love the moonflower, it’s very pretty.

El, I hope the payroll people get back to you soon.

How is Cyril today, Moonie? The blackbird was back at the window a couple of times.

I’ve only ever had visual migraines, which are very disconcerting but not painful.

I hope everyone has had a good day

Hi Yogi

Its currently blowing a gale but not to cold. The rain has finally stopped

Oh, yes I forgot about Sweets mums vaccination. I will add my hopes that everything went well too

Baby Cyril was chasing another squirrel all over the garden. A rival or perspective mate

Btw, when I went to top up his feed, I opened the top and there was a little mouse inside feeding. I don’t know who was more surprised, me or him but he short off like a bat out of hell 😂😂😂

My day has been good, I hope yours has too

Ooh, Cyril might be on the hunt for a mate

lol Your surprise meeting with the mouse reminded me of the time my youngest and I were clearing out the garage and a little mouse had made a nest in one of my planters. When it saw my son, it ran around the garage and my son ran out! The thing is, he and his brothers used to keep pet mice and gerbils so he shouldn’t have been bothered by a little mouse.😂

I’m glad your day was good. Mine was good too
