I fancy a packet of Rolos. Don't ask me why.

Good luck

Are you allowed to tell us what it's all about yet ?

I don't see why not, as long as you promise not to pinch my idea. I'm going to create a web-based bookkeeping app for small, primarily cash-based businesses: pubs, small shops, window cleaners, etc. Things are changing in the world of small businesses, with the Revenoo's Making Tax Digital initiative requiring online quarterly returns. Most of the bookkeeping software available seems to dwell on debtors, creditors and invoices. I'm hoping to simplify that by using a day-by-day approach - enter your daily income and daily expenses. Underneath, of course, will be all the double entry debit and credit business so that it can produce easy reports for accountants, but that'll all be hidden as much as possible.

Next step is setting up the company, I think, but thinking about the money is all so scary.

That sounds good and i promise faithfully i won't pinch your idea as i have no idea how that all works but really good luck.

Ooh...... do give plenty of notice. My social diary is getting awfully full...



...that is if I'm invited.

 

[mybike]

Shush, don't give it ideas.

@Maverick Goose I have a bone to pick with you.

I suppose I should be grateful the rain has stopped, but the towpath is now little different from the canal.

Why are those frogs blue?

Cos it's frogs' porn.

 

[Hill Wimp]

You have written Foodie with a capital F, which could be confusing.

True.

How about I am planning a gastro/beer/gin/cycling weekend?

Had to get it out of the way.

When I moved into my last job they were recording all the orders they were making on a spreadsheet. It worked but you had to know what you were doing & it was easy to delete stuff. When I left it was a spreadsheet populated from a database that kept a record of all changes and it was hard to accidently delete anything. It also populated an assets register. But that sort of thing requires a fair bit of time and knowledge of how VBA works!

I dropped half of my headphones into a glass of yellow beer last night. After rinsing them under the cold tap to sluice out the amber fluid, and leaving them on top of a radiator for 16 hours, I'm happy to report they are still OK.

I dropped half my head into one of those glasses once. Must remember the radiator trick.

I've got as far as pivot tables in my use of Excel. I can't help thinking that anything that involves macros in Excel would be better served by an application that's designed to do the job. Besides, my key market are more likely to be using fag packets, notepads and carrier bags than fancy Excel workbooks!

As a scuba diver I don't think I can support this suggestion, the onions will float off.

But they won't let the synthase make sulfoxide molecules to create sulfenic acid, as it would in an aerial environment. It is the sulfenic acid that causes the irritation that makes the eyes produce tears.
