    Hello all

    May I ask a question about registering for tax. I have my first assignment on Tuesday.

    I am a company director, it is my husband and I's company so I have to do a tax return each year. I receive no wages from the company at the moment. Do I still need to reg as self employed or just declare earnings from MS on next tax return?

    Thanks in advance for all help.

    Yes, you will need to fill in the CWF1 form to register for self employment to ensure that Revenue and Customs send you the correct pages for your return or update your online return profile.

    I did a bank job today and secured a clothes shop for Aba-i to coincide with my photography job tomorrow. I had to wait for 15 minutes in the bank though, as all the Advisers were busy. There wasn't anything they could do to keep me waiting any less time though and the staff were very apologetic, so hopefully they will get good feedback from the company.

    I think it's suposed to be, certainly that's all you can accept on the website. But, I have a good relationship with ABAi, they were getting a little desperate for the jobs completing. I've done both types for them before, so they knew I'd do a good job, and a had a day or two off work so could do them at pretty short notice, mind you, aren't all ABAi jobs at short notice?!

    They're very flexible - talk to them.

    I've got loads of jobs lined up in the same town tomorrow, something which i've never managed to do before! To top it all I managed to get a car park from GFK too! All's I need now is to find a job to cover my lunch and i'll be well away. :j

    Anyone got any tips on the car park jobs? I've never done one of those before and not sure how easy it will be to take lots of pics discreetly! :o

    The car park job is really easy. Best to take photos using your mobile phone as lot more discreet and you can disguise it as texting. Mind you, most of the car parks I have done, I couldn't see an attendant anyway, so don't worry too much about being spotted.
