    Sorry I havent been watching X factor or strictly but I defo think it will snow. They say when there are loads of berries on the bushes that it will be a hard winter and there is loads around here. Sadly they are not the sort that jumble jack could make use of.

    There is a brilliant forum on the old style money saving section called preparing for winter

    I often read it and they have some great ideas on winter proofing your house against the cold, stocking up etc.

    thoroughly recommend reading it - maybe tonight instead of this thread!

    Off to put kids to bed so will look in tomorrow

    I have broken no tax law. I spoken to them last week about it. As long as its not a business and im selling some products to recoop the extra money. call you local tax office as check.

    So you are being honest and saying (figures estimated):

    "I am spending very little as they are giving me a voucher each time so my expenditure is around £500 and got £9000 of stuff and have made a few thousand £ so far.... stored a lot but it is too much for me so hope to sell more and get about £5-6000 back giving a profit of £5000ish. Do I need to declare that for tax?"

    And they said "No"?

    Odd as that goes against what is stated on the HMRC website.
    If I had a pound for every pound I'd lost, I'd be confused

    Oh I have never heard on Al Wilson before. Sounds a bit like an early Tom Jones.

    No law in selling it but in theory you have to declare income and depending how much people are doing this would be income would it not ?

    yes - you are meant to declare extra income. You can earn a hobby income for up to around £3000 a year but you are still supposed to declare it. Above that its taxable.
    I'm sorry, these vouchers are only exchangeable for abuse!

    Who is going to win the x factor?

    Who will win Strictly dancing?

    Will it snow this year?

    Anyone feel like discussing these topics let me know

    I say on x factor it will be one of the girls and on strictly it will be one of the young girls!

    I have only seen bits & pieces of the XFactor auditions so far some of those people were incredibly scary :eek: Once I'm more familiar with them I will voice an opinion.

    Speaking of former XFactor contestants there are strong rumours that the two that were at the Milan Fashion show today could be on a celeb v celeb show soon its one of two at the moment.

    Big big hugs to Percy be a good boy & take your medicine

    That's what you'd think....but it doesn't It just goes crumbly !!
    If it's smelly it's not working properly.;)
    ..... and I just love the slogan on the side of their wagons :rotfl:



    I think crumbly (as in Flaky) works just as well for the contents.
