    That could make some threads a bit tricky to follow :D You'd have to have a "Reveal" or "Un-Ingore" button to follow those threads. Stick with my suggestion and you will just have to set your "preferences" to "ignore" anyone who has been "unconvincing" more than "x" times. :rotfl:
    A house isn't a home without a cat.
    Those are my principles. If you don't like them, I have others.
    I have writer's block - I can't begin to tell you about it.
    You told me again you preferred handsome men but for me you would make an exception.
    It's a recession when your neighbour loses his job; it's a depression when you lose yours.

    My advice is don't declare the rental income then your boyfriend wont have to pay tax on it. The tenants have already payed income tax on that money !!!!!
    That's one silly answer, but ceretainly the way I would do it.

    I abhor that suggestion. It makes a mockery of everyone else who pays tax.

    This message is hidden because BobProperty is on your ignore list.

    "The buddy list is used to keep track of the friends you have made on this forum. By going to your "My vB Home", you'll be able to see which of your friends are currently online, and be able to send them a private message. Adding people to your buddy list also allow you to send private messages to multiple forum members at the same time. You may add any member of the forums to your buddy list by clicking this button in a member's posts.

    By adding someone to your buddy list you give them entitlement to drive your car, sleep in your spare room, and spend time with your wife while you're at work."
