Just been searching (again) for "book-keeper" related graphics. Google is fine, as it also searches for "bookkeeper" and "bookkeeping" Other search engines are not so flexible.
Has anyone taken time-out to check on the official (OED or CED) spelling ?
How did the hyphen creep in ?

The views expressed in this post are my own personal (HRA protected) views, and are not representative of any organisation I have any involvement with.
Trivia: Bookkeeper (and bookkeeping) are the only words in the english language with three consecutive paired letters.
I was going to jump in with something clever but Bill beat me to it :)
However, here's something you may be interested in... Recently we were looking at QuickFile users who had entered their profession as 'Bookkeeper' (on the registration screen), I have to say it didn't initially occur to us to also check 'book-keeper'. From the sample of 210 accounts we found 184 used 'Bookkeeper', 20 used 'Book-keeper' and wait for it... 6 used 'Bookeeper'.
that was the Kris' original userid... If you want to know what happened click on the userid and look at the last posts (which are a closed thread).
Any road up, you may not have got the cryptic message to me the other week but that was why Kris warned me the other day about getting dragged into trench warfare with posts.
Anyway, main thing is that he's back now and I for one am jolly glad he is.

Been so busy I didn't know if I was counter sunk, or punchbowl.
I sacked one client, and lost another to his newly qualified sister recently. Neither are a great loss, as they were both PITA (that's why I sacked one), so I am a bit quieter now.
Hopefully more time to get back on the forum
Looking forward to getting into our debates , especially now Robs back as well.
Sounds like a plan. Got quite a bit on for the next three weeks but after that looking forwards to turning a few completely innocent inoquous little questions into major debates about tax and financial reporting.... Even if the answer does end up as a there or there abouts. lol.
