Some people mentioned allowable expenses for an office in their house etc. For those where Capital Gains could be an issue in the future you are best apportioning time for use of home office (the HMRC will likely take the view on this being fair regardless of Capital Gains potential) so if you use the home office for 30% of the day and the family have use of the room for surfing the net or doing homework etc. i.e. the room is still part of the family residence then I think the Capital Gains issue is irrelevant and the tax should be happy that you are having a true and fair view of the use of the room. So if the home office makes up 25% of the house / flat then they would be happy for you to apportion 30% (time based) of 25% of the general house expenses eg heat / light etc. Again apportion phone use or better still itemise calls made specifically for business with a fair proportion of line rental (assuming you don't have a fixed separate line for th business initially). There are examples on the HMRC site (sorry haven't got a direct link but go via the HMRC links on the first page of the thread and have a look around). Hope this helps a bit (and doesn't make it even more confusing ).

Hi all

I have some pretty basic questions about publishing, i'm hoping you can help with. You seem to know everything about everything between you

I have something that i would like to publish, as a book, however i'm unclear about the process. Firstly, i was wondering how and at what stage i should be protecting the idea behind the book - as it's something that could be easily ripped off. I'm reluctant to show it to a publisher - could they just steal the idea but use it in a different form? The other question was regarding illustrations - the book would require photo images, would i sort these too or would the publishing co assist with these? I'm just worried that without knowing the score in this industry, i could be easily misled or tricked into being a doughnut!

Well done to all you folk, sounds like you're doing excellently as usual. I'll be keeping an eye on you all (as will my 100 pairs of googlies) x

Hmm, I think the items I bought on ebay a few days ago are fakes - should I contact ebay first or the seller? I can't be sure but they definitely look different to the ones on sale in Tesco (just popped in to have a look!) and I don't want to accuse the seller if they're real. Either way, they don't look real enough for me to sell on so I want my money back.

Any advice anyone?
