Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

don't be cheeky! :-)
the only avoidance i have taken, apart from the house in joint names, is to move some stuff into my pension fund which is IHT friendly

Didn't you say you evaded the law by playing your freemason card to get off a driving offence ?

Cynic thats Tax avoidance not tax evasion and therefore not a criminal offence.

Aldwick I didnt evade the law the law evaded me. Theirs a big difference, think it through.

Mmmm. Sounds like conspiracy to evade a driving offence. Didn't a couple get jailed for that recently?

True but I wasnt banned and secondly I never asked to be let off the fine, it just happened. For all I know it could be still held up in the system.

Far different from your circumstances were you admit to defauding HMRC and gloating at it aswel, although I take that as being nerves having been outed as a crook.

By the way you seem to have forgotten I was employed by HMRC as a senior tax officer.

And Harold Shipman was a Doctor....

rationalising, sticky, rationalising :-)

Hays,

Careful, one of your posts appeared to condone the avoidance of speeding tickets sometime ago.

Hays and Manuel,

How low can a tory party rag sheet get?

Maybe, as low as the tory party hierarchy suggest?

Was it inspired by the cons party's leadership?

This is nothing to do with the tory being friendly with the Murdochs and the remnant of the Leveson affair and future legislation?

Careful Dave your sponsors may not like it.

Birds of a feather, comes to mind.

How are we getting these government figures through from US, if the government is supposed to be closed down. 3 sets of figures reported so far?.

Skinny just seen your post i was a Career Civil Servant, and spent 6 years with the then DHSS and 4 years with HMRC, dont get the point of your post !!!

Yes, gf, of course you were. It is better to humour people with delusions. What is it like being Napoleon? Did you enjoy walking on the moon and winning the 100 metres at the fantasy Olympics? It must be just a chore being a polymath and a renaissance man.

Is it a bird, is it a plane? No it is gf!

Fair enough Hays but Ive mentioned it on this thread on many occasions. I had to sign the Official Secrets Act when i left(and when I started), which meant I couldnt discuss previous work or practices outside going forward.

Anyway you want to think yourself lucky I havent reported you.

You take the -iss but I know I arent labeled a crook like you.

Boys,

Behave.

I am playing serious chess to-night for the 1st time in 40 years and you are putting me off my revision.

Or as N, would type . . . . . . .

I have signed the Official Secrets Act on several occasions. In fact someone who posts on here was standing beside me on one of those occasions as he was signing it. I think he has signed it a few more times than me though.

Hays,

That was party HQ requirements.

No. It was about 40 years ago when we were a lot younger.

Recently took up chess myself Fred, joined a website called Chess.Com very good. Doesn't cost anything to join, pairs you up with players at the level you are at which in my case is crap. Choose the 3 day duration option, press play now and you could be playing anyone (at your level) in the world. Or friends and family at your leisure. Plenty of other options on the site also, plus learning aids. My username is Kit3273845 if you fancy a challenge.

There are some sites like that for GO.

There are some for STOP to
