SA form looked at, it was scary then when I finally got my head round it I couldn't find a black pen *tuts*

I had to do a SA for the first time last year and decided to complete it online. It was so easy to do and I knew exactly (unfortunately) how much extra tax I needed to pay. Plus doing it online gives you and extra 3 months

You're definitely better off here The website made me feel exhausted just looking at it and that thought of all those emails was unbearable!

DeniseF - I agree with you about air fresheners. Best thing is to open the window and get rid of the source of the smell (sorry SarahS, looks like you'll have to warn hubby he may have to move into the shed ), or to put a drop or two of essential oil on a lightbulb. You can also mix essential oils with vinegar for a spray, or make a gel air freshener from gelatine, vodka, water & essential oils.

For pet pee, dry, wash with washing up liquid, rinse with 110ml vinegar diluted in 2 pts warm water. Vinegar can also be used as a repellant if they keep using the same place.

The other advantage is that you can work on it for a bit and save it when you have had enough or need to stop to get more info. So long as you save it each time you will not have to start over. The only time HMRC see it is when you press 'submit', you get the option to print a hard copy and you get a reference number to 'prove' that HMRC have received it.

I do mine online. It's much better. Just make sure you save a copy (and print it off if you feel happier). There are links to all the explanatory notes and help with calculations too. Good luck.

Hope everyone is well.

Still carrying on with the bathroom; did the door, light, radiator and some of the wall and skirting boards. Hopefully should get it finished tonight or tomorrow.

Can I just ask again about how you clean your washing machine? Was it something to do with soda crystals or vinegar?

You're doing a fantastic job. When the bathroom comes round this week it'll only take you a few minutes!

Washing machine - you can choose what/how much to use. Soda crystals get rid of detergent residue & gunge, vinegar gets rid of limescale and detergent residue. I cleaned mine by putting a cup of soda crystals in the detergent dispenser, and vinegar in the fabric conditioner dispenser.
