Quite right. He would have to be Gas Safe registered to do that. Which
would make him a plumber, not a handyman.

But I wouldn't expect you to know that.

How do you 'repalce' a boiler BTW?

You replace the 'a' fro an 'l' and replace an 'l' fro an 'a' then you
have replace not repalce.


'fro'?

Ha ha!

Are you really a teacher?


Woosh!


Desperation enters stage left......

Don't be too harsh on the muppet, he only has to follow pictures on
Ikea instruction sheets.


Dave has already admitted that he is incapable of reading Ikea
pictures.

OK, Bodge job. How much tax will your clever accountant save you in
the year 2011/2012?

Here are my full year accounts:
UK Income: £59,202
Made up of: £46,002 salary; £13,200 rental income
Less pension: £6,900
Less mortage interest: £5,713
Less property maintenance: £4,115
Taxable income: £42,474
Threshold for higher rate tax: £42, 475

Tax saved: £6,690
Plus a £75 saving for not having to employ a "clever accountant" 'cos
I am numerate enough to work these little things out for myself.

Numeracy is only a small part of being a clever accountant Cwispin.


Yes - I am sure that your accountant is clever. Charging you £62.50 +
VAT for you to save £74 in tax. I bet you think you are being clever
by hiring your clever accountant.

Oh I do. I won't pay any tax at all next year. All perfectly legal.

I am very happy for you.

Just out of interest, how have you managed to wangle your van to be
vehicle excise duty exempt, and how has your clever accountant managed
to VAT exempt you for your chocolate biscuits?


Alright, income tax.


I see. Your clever accountant isn't that clever after all.


There are more straws you can clutch at I'm sure. Your post is clearly
about income tax.

****ed up again, now wriggling.

Just like you wriggled about commuter challenges, inventing railway
stations in medieval castles.

Happy now **** for brains?


I have always been happy.


The feeble minded often are.

We're close to skint, having spent something in the region of £130,000

Sheesh and I am balking at a £2000 bathroom.

bath; £477 washstand; £392 cabinet; £176 mirror; £105 pan, £64

original claw foot 1930s bath and had it re-enameled for £550.


I wonder why so many of the psycholists here have to tell us how much they have spent on this thing or that thing.

I think it must be some sort of insecurity.

Must be some kind of stupidity to pay those prices.

I had discounts of up to 70% off the Roper Rhodes list price.



Yes dear, of course you did.

The price lists they use to stitch up the green as grass.

I get 40% off list price from several suppliers. They bump the real
prices up to allow for it.

The issue is whether the hagfish is itself a degenerate type of
vertebrate-fish (most closely related to lampreys), or else may represent
a stage which precedes the evolution of the vertebral column (as do
lancelets).

The original scheme groups hagfish and lampreys together as cyclostomes
(or historically, Agnatha), as the oldest surviving clade of vertebrates
alongside gnathostomes (the now-ubiquitous jawed-vertebrates).

An alternative scheme proposed that jawed-vertebrates are more closely
related to lampreys than to hagfish (i..e, that vertebrates include
lampreys but exclude hagfish), and introduces the category craniata to
group vertebrates near hagfish. Recent DNA evidence has supported the
original scheme.
