Quirky thread of the year: Community Awards

Didn't find your answer?

Yes, it's that time of year again - 2013 is drawing to a close and we're keen to recognise those who have made AccountingWEB such a great community to be part of this year.

This thread focuses on the 'quirkiest thread' category in which you can vote for the strangest, quirkiest and most unusual thread of the year in our 2013 Community Awards, sponsored by Clear Books.

If you've got nominations, get posting them below to cast your vote. 

Other members - if you see a thread that you like appear in a comment below, just click 'thanks' and that'll register as a vote, too. 

The thread with the highest number of votes will win - and the original poster will win lots of kudos and a small prize from our sponsors at Clear Books. 

Here are some of our highlights to kick things off: 

Looking forward to reading your submissions!

Possible candidates

New HMRC phone answering method...  for the wonderful reinterpretations of the new voice recognition system.

Have you seen a rise in "freelance accountants"? - Though it definitely didn't go the way the original poster intended.

I have just spotted Swiss Toni - Short but sweet

Non sequitur - Really needs more posts, but some great clientisms so far.

I had forgotten about the calculator thread too - poor Ralph! Definitely a good contender.
