Basic Expenses question

It's a grey area and to be honest for the small tax saving not worth the hassle or possible lube treatment from HMRC IMO.

It's a grey area

No it isn't - see my post above.

If you can claim travel expenses, you can claim subsistence as well; if you can't then you can't. I'm not sure how much clearer it can be

It isn't a grey area.

It is not necessarily a small tax saving

HMRC won't give you the lube treatment if you do it properly.
