    Not sure if this is any help TPA but my friend always keeps a copy of his tax return so that the next year he just copies the relevant info again without too much hassle.

    Totally agree in particular 3.2.11 that is my dh's speciality. To be fair he is good at foodshopping does not buy much rubbish and I hate going unless I have loads of vouchers to use.

    Good luck on the tax return I must admit I do do MS but I have not done a tax return. Most of the ones I do you just get the money back you spend or the small fee just about cover parking let alone petrol. Naughty I know.

    'Tax, doesn't have to be taxing'
    My backside!:mad: FGS why do they not use English terms? Why does it fault when you put your answer in as 0.00, I know the answer to this one as I had to phone the hlpline on numerous occasions - its because 0.00 is not recognised, you have to just leave it blank....arrggghhh the question was 'how much other income does the business have'? er... 0.00 is the answer not blank, it didn't say please leave blank if the answer is sod all!!:(

    This is all happenstance and in no way deliberate.

  • Hi TPA, brave you tackling the tax.

    I would love to win an i-phone lol but ended up buying one for DS1 at xmas.

    I used to comp loads, its great coming home to a 'prize' the small letters are the best 'cos they are usually something exciting!

    But, I must admit my comping has slipped since I started DFWing! Only so much time and all that, and a lot of the big prizes end up costing you money! but i am trying to enter a few more this year - I won my 1st prize of 2010 last week just a book but its a start and spurred me on cgx :)

    Lol, you're too late, I saw the unedited version!! :naughty::rotfl:


    PS I know its a weeknight, and I know its early but I'm off to find a much dserved bottle of wine

    I know it's another weeknight, but I've had a rotten day, so think I'll join you (albeit belatedly) in that bottle of wine!!
    PS. That's why I never signed up to your alcohol-free challenge, I knew I would fail miserably!! :o

    Compingirl, well done on the win!!
  • LOL at seeing the unedited version! I was so mad, but calmed down a bit now so 'dumbed' down my madness!:rotfl:

    I managed an extra shift yesterday and two MSs today. I have another 4 booked for Saturday, two for Monday. two for Tuesday and a couple more odds n sods!

    My poor doggy had an accident on the weekend, whilst getting out of the car boot he caught his paw and cried so much it was heart breaking, even more so when I realised he had 'wee'd' himself with the pain:(

    SML I have printed out a copy of my tax return thank you for the tip! Although as I only made an £8 profit, at one point I owed the tax man £92:eek:, then they owed me £53.....I have obviously done some seriously wrong!

    I am currently drinking budweiser and watching Come Dine with Me on Sky +...ah bliss!

  • Aww, TPA, your poor doggy :( Did he catch a claw?? Poor little fella, hope he's ok now. And you, must have broken your heart to see him so upset.

    Only had one glass of wine last night, but then tossed & turned in bed all night. Serves me right, should have waited until the weekend & then I could have had more & been anaethetised when I went to bed!! :rotfl:

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
