We don't know what's on your computer - but it will be Excel that you are looking for.

In the absence of this, open office [for free] will give you a spreadsheet that is more than adequate for your use.

Best bet is get an accountant - it will get done right and you will find all the proper allowances are claimed. Sounds to me as though you are a sole trader not vat registered so I would typically charge £175 a year for that if that helps you make a decision

You can get templates for self-employed people for £13+ VAT from here. You'd need Excel or OpenOffice as well.

Info on HMRC online submission is here

They've been doing it for years fine by the sounds of it - stop touting for business!
