Not sure we are legally allowed to stop now as Tikay is technically winning, pretty sure we have to carry on until that has changed!

Lots of things I could tell my 11 year old self though not sure I would listen to any of them and if I did I would probably have not ended up where I am now so nah just roll with it.

As for straw poll on voting Yes I'm 50/50 it's either yes or no depending on which side the coin comes down on.

I passed the take that one as in reality who cares!!!, glad to see it was not one of Tikay's music choices.

In and Man Utd night was amazing watching it with wife to be and friends, another friend was there with his late father and they saw the first goal but were still getting up after all ending up in a heap when the second went in. Great days 

[on the streets abusing children]

Paedophiles are surely the worst human beings out there. Anything that means less of them on the streets abusing children can only be a good thing imho.

I think the problem is that generally they are not on the street openly abusing children it is done in the children's own home often by people known to them and therefore it is not likely to stopped by this sort of action. As a father of two young children I would agree it is the worst crime but not sure I can agree with vigilantes. There have been enough stories in the past of people being wrongly identified and attacked.

i used mine

Clodhopper!

Who are you missing?

Do we need to put in a cut off to ensure we get the team in? I am sure there are a few other players interested?

My 9yr old grandsons are both hooked on Minecraft and Clash of Clans**

I attempted to learn how it all worked so that I could join in with them occasionally. Epic fail.

The one that lives with us is especially hooked on videos by a gent called stampylongnose who makes a living through his YouTube channel.

See his interview on BBC Breakfast here

There are many others making similar videos.


** Clash of Clans isn't a sandbox game, it's more of a conflict/adventure game. Played on the ipad, you can download a basic version for free if you want to.

Yes I believe that is the one my son and his friends are mad about. I believe the guy started out making them and the language was not great and then he realised that the majority of people viewing them were young kids and moderated his language (I suspect he was just worried they would use rude words he had not heard!).

I have never played minecraft and can't say I feel the need to do so, I will just settle for beating my son at FIFA. Although I do miss the time when we used to play domino's or cards before they went to bed, I even used to let them win occasionally!!!!

Based on my sons usage 20min plus you tube clips are very popular if they relate to some bloke showing what he does on Minecraft!!! it appears to be almost more popular than actually playing the game for kids of a certain age! The only times I have ever used you tube is to show my kids some quality music.

I think part of it is about participation or watching. If you playing in a game then generally the longer it goes on the better, yesterday we had a lad at football asking if we could play 20 minutes extra time and then announce that he wanted to carry on playing all day. I think if he was watching and not playing you have a maximum period of time that he would be prepared to watch before he wants to do something else.  

I also think there are more influences to divert people these days but the main reason I don't play golf any more is that with a young family can I really justify spending 4-5 hours of the weekend on my own and not with the kids. Poker can of course take the same amount of time but generally it is at night and therefore has less of an impact.

I believe that the error relates to bringing forward turnover from the next period and delaying reporting expenditure from the current period, any of these transactions would need a double entry. i,e, if you increase sales you either need to show more money in the bank or a significant upward shift in debtors (or reduction in creditors) these would/should be notable shifts and unless they were being performed over a long period of time would have led to a significant variation from expectations. Hence you would expect senior figures to have spotted it, especially given that this is a plc and any reports have to be very tightly controlled.

Clearly someone did spot this and has blown the whistle, I just hope they are treated fairly.

The Tesco book may well be due an updated final chapter given the developments today, not sure how senior people fail to spot an extra £250m in profit!!!!!.

Looking forward to it 

Interesting article in the Telegraph today which suggested that some people in Orkney and Shetland have asked for a separate referendum to rejoin the union if Scotland votes to leave!

Also one person who was going to vote Yes was asked what he would call himself if they left and he said he would be British!

For the record I consider myself English first and British second, but the Highlands of Scotland would probably rank as my favourite place in the world and is really the only other place I would consider living.
