Had mine done, finished and a nice rebate before xmas!

I tried that self assesment could not get my head around it, went to an accountant in the end.

Who on here bothers with an accountant?

i do,you know its correct then,accountant for end off year and a another person does the tax deductions from subbies, cant go wrong that way ???

I'd be lost without my accountant he's a bloody genius and gives great advice but keeps it all legal. I think his last bill fror the year was about £750 which is money well spent becuase he saves me many times more than that and takes a lot of weight off my shoulders. Also an accountants return is less likely to be queried than a self assessment.

Much simpler in the north....

A Two Bob = 10p
A Ten Bob = 50p
A fiver = £5
A tenner = £10
A twenty = £20
A fifty = £50
A Nundred = £100
A Grand = deposit on a nice little two-up-two-down

...sadly, we have lost ha'pennies, thrupenny bits, sixpences, and half-crowns, which were *real* money.
