Busybee - glad the Marmite found a good home.

Aaah, Tootler, the dreaded Tax Return...It's a lovely feeling when it's all been done, isn't it ? My self-employed Tax Year runs from October to October, so technically I have plenty of time to prepare and submit my accounts to the Revenue, but I put it off every year, and it's become an annual ritual now to do them between Christmas and New Year. It's funny, because once I get going on the paperwork, I actually quite enjoy it. Feeling very relieved now because I went to the bank this afternoon to pay my dues -it reminds me of the kind of feeling after sitting the last set of exams at school....temporary freedom, until the inevitable next time that comes round all too soon. In fact, the whole tax form thing reminds me very much of school - that must be why everyone I know dreads doing them so much !
