Morning All,
Fundy when you're around..
A question, if you forget to tick the dreaded box 13 (I think it is)
the one about if I've over-paid I want my money back please, on the
self-assess. form, can you ring them up, plead ignorance, smile sweetly
and extract the tax over-paid?????
Opto - one word VOD!!!!!
I'll grab a danish and a cup of tea and I'm off to try and sort out an
outstanding invoice...how do these companies run that never send out
invoices?? Don't they want my money??? LOL

Morning all
Bunny - you can try but I guess they will take your first answer on this one if they have already processed it. Have you already contacted them about it? If not, ask if they have processed it yet and if they havent tell them that you need to resubmit the form to make a minor correction and tick the box and resubmit it.
Coffee and a sausage sarnie for me this morning

stockbunny, alternatively wait until the tax form has been processed and you get a statement of account showing a credit, then write them a letter asking for a refund of the balance.

Ah..thanks Fundy and Kayak - yes I have received a calculation letter I
think they called it, stating that I was in an overpayment situation.
I'll see if a phone-call does the trick first and write after that if
needs be.
It's not a lot of money, it's just the principle of the thing!!
I can't imagine any other form of organisation that could get away with
openly admitting it was holding your money in error and then turn round
and say sorry you forgot to tick a box, so you'll have to wait until
next year to get it back, and without any interest added or anything - it's just so totally unreal!
Chased said invoice, no doubt it will need chasing again...Got too much
work to do....got some mad woman who keeps ringing me up....AHH!!!!
OK glass of Shiraz Cab' please and leave the bottle in reach, I think
I'll hide in here all day instead!! ;>)

Why don't VOD just send us a load of money instead of all these buy backs and put options :-))
Shiraz for breakfast indeed!!

Hi Opto - I don't mind what they do (VOD) as long as the price goes up ;>)
Yes, Shiraz for breakfast - bunny's having one of those mornings or
as some close to me would say 'one of my drama episodes' LOL!

Well Bunny I've it some thought and I've decided I don't know what to suggest for a Bunny 'in drama' so have another glass!

LOL Opto - oh it's just one of those mornings - don't worry no-one knows what to do when the bunny goes into a drama, aside of stand well back!! (lol)
I rang the tax office...
(who want a letter requesting repayment of overpaid tax)
but say that a letter will suffice and I don't have to wait until next year.
So a minor result, as i said it's not the money it's the principle.
Anyway halfway thru' the work I need to get done, so I'm off to get a sandwich and will pop in
after that, in between finishing things off, that's assuming nothing else
crops up ;>) No idea how VOD is currently, but hope it's still OK!!!

Peace, quiet and tranquility in the tea-rooms...
In other words nobody's in here and it looks tidy too,
apart from the three empty bottles of Shiraz - I deny all knowledge!;>)
Work is now done, the bunny is calm and the world is looking prettier!!
I'm goin out on the roof to watch the clouds and drink my tea......

You must feel really bad about going away and leaving all this cool rain behind. I suppose you will just have to try and make the best of clear blue skies and relentless sunshine :-(

I'd like to say you are right, but when I looked at the forcast for Cyprus they are expecting thunderstorms next few days. At least the rain will be warm.

Cyprus is lovely at this time of year, Jeffie. Where are you staying? My favourite spot has got to be in one of the beach bungalows on the private bit of Nissi Beach just outside Ayia Napa.

Hiya Jeffers, I'm just back and off you go, have a good time, not too much booooze.....
Had lovely 35 degrees, ummm. but back to soggy garden and damp house, orchids all miserable and forlorn, wish I could have stayed out there...
Still anyone that knows of my little rabbit problem, have come home to 2 new litters of baby bunnies and they all look really healthy, so it may be dull and raining outside but my heart is shining. (and that is not as sad as it sounds if you knew what I went through).
Hope the markets and life have been kind to everyone, cant read over 1,500 posts!
Now most importantly, apologies to Stormie, feel I may have been more than a little harsh last night...sorry!
Now the markets...what the bloody hell has happended, just couldnt leave those stop losses in could I.....strong coffee please.

I remember one year we hadn't been skiing and J was really craving for some snow. We went to Cyprus in April (I think) and hired an open top jeep and drove to the top of the Troodos Mountains looking for a bit of snow in the faint hope that we might be able to ski. Needless to say, the season had finished long ago but, although the snow had melted, it was still blooming cold up in the hills. We got lost, I only had a bikini top on; It got dark, the headlights on the jeep didn't work; The windscreen got covered in cr@p and the wipers didn't work. Got back to the hotel at about 10pm just in time for the last sitting of dinner. We'd hired the blasted jeep for a week and didn't bother to take it out again for the rest of the holiday.
Blow Aphrodite's Rock and all the other sights. They're a waste of time. Just chill on the beach.
:o)
