It is little over a week before the 31 January deadline day and whilst AccountingWEB readers seem as if they are coping gallantly under the pressure, there have been a few hiccups along the way.

PracticeWeb’s editor Ray Newman also stops by the pod booth, bringing with him the latest insights from small businesses. What’s clear from the report is that accountants have a role to play in helping them manage their day-to-day worries, stresses and experiences.
