Hello to the trainee accountant and auditor that I met on the last train out of Manchester Oxford Road last night. He had been celebrating after completing his first 2 professional exam papers (Accounting and Auditing, I think). We had a good old chat about the trials and tribulations of the Big 4, but not forgetting the pride and privileges of being part of it all and the second-to-none training - Ok maybe we were getting a bit maudlin by then - but it was a long journey home!
