Have you posted this on the cutting tax board?
I think there is a way around it but you must get advice from a good accountant. A few hundred pounds could save you thousands. We got bad advice from a rubbish accountant and a few hundred pounds cost us tens of thousands. You live and learn.Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.
