  1. On my Mac the above letter appears to be black and white, if it appears grey on yours it may need repair
  2. First posted by Peter VOSA Letter-2.pdf
  3. No doubt those controlling the employed staff "have contact" of some sort with the agencies, this kind of corruption is rife. This need getting into the press. Its been shown that throwing more and more money at the NHS does not improve the service.
  4. Would it not be better to get £3500kg trailer now?? you can tow a trailer plated higher than your vehicles capacity, so long its actual loaded weight is within your vehicles capacity.
  5. IMO, very little if anything. I would certainly not want to be taking its value into account when quoting. It it only worth to me the hassle of taking it away. [ame] [/ame]
  6. Indeed. It would be argued they are not felling the tree "accidentally".
  7. Some guys like cheap and snasty, just look at some lasses
  8. Depends, if its a first step on the road, you live at home with limited overheads, its a chance to learn the job and make contacts. With time and experience better rates and other options will follow Play for the long game would be my advice
  9. How can you say that? You have not idea what his circumstances are.
  10. Did you start late Jonny?? I thought you were about 60??? You must have had a tough paper round mate.

    My accident

    I've kept wanting to post in this thread, but find it very hard to know what to say (I'm sure I'm not alone) Sean you are living through what is for most of us our worst nightmare. Our bodies are like tough 4X4's that always do what we ask them to do, we use and abuse them, but they simply get stronger and cope. (with a few extra aches and pains) But the fear of that body failing terrifies us, just look at man flue, we think we are going to die!! But you Sean are dealing with it in a way that I know I'm fearful I would not manage. Your strength of character and outward looking attitude is truly inspirational!!! Reading your posts has been a very humbling experience and brought many a tear to my eyes. I don't know you personally Sean, but I genuinely wish you all the very best for the future and if good will has any power many on here will be greatly adding your progress!! Please keep us posted and stay strong, you have shown to us and yourself that your have the strength to nail this, so keep on keeping on!!!
  12. You claim the full price of the item, including VAT, against your TAX. Of cause you don't get the VAT back directly, as you would if you were registered, but it can go against your profits in the normal fashion.
  13. Good post!!! All this talk of the low productivity of British workers, its not the workers, its all the useless management they are carrying thats pulling down productivity!
  14. You can claim all costs incurred procuring the item.
  15. They were criminal scum, who I'm pleased to see were made examples off by the courts, not sure they will be as fast to act in the future!!
  16. This is the point Its not possible for things to be great, but lets at least have a competent government who are not running the country into the ground pretending every things going to be wonderful
  17. You can fool all of the people some of the time and some of the people all of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time.
  18. Your going all posh on us Jonny!!!!
  19. Is what people want actually deliverable??
  20. You appear to be missing the point. Its about how long such reductions last and wether in actual fact they promote growth. No one is disputing how good they look when cut, what about one, two, three years down the line???
  21. No reason you cannot remain a sole trader and just add stump grinding to your current services
  22. When you consider the lack of depreciation, Landrovers are pretty good move, even with repair costs.
  23. You can do both thats why I have a Mog
