    Snacks, fruit and free lunches... Pt2

    Apeshapes initial thread isn't working and as I don't remember that anything even close to that title has ever been asked before so is likely to be highly complicated but useful.

    Apeshape, please feel free to ask your question again in this thread so we can help you.

    It looks as if AS posted in a different forum and one of the other Mods tried to move it to this forum.

    could you repost in this forum AS?

        It doesn’t look like it.

        Edit: Nope, not fixed.

            Daft post of the year is going to be a very close run thing between free fruit (which isn't free) and moving between your office and your kitchen to do outside inside gigs it seems.

                Muahahahha.. Yes, very good

                You should have jumped on the other thread when it was in full flow. That would have confused the hell out of the OP

                  No idea what happened but I think there was a bug, time to update the boards?

                  But yeah, what's the consensus here other than 'it's a stupid question.....' never mind the fruit bit (not a fan of fruit) I just want to be able to get a lunch time mayo-egg bacon sarnie, coke and crisps off my company as an expense which I know I can do when working on location any way.

                    Why? Or do you only eat when working for someone else? You get the tax relief on subsistence when, and only when, it is not practical to prepare your own food, e.g. you are working away from home.

                    Sounds silly perhaps, but that's the rule the judge would apply. If you have to do something whether or not you're working, it's not tax deductible.

                    And if you're really worried about 20% of the cost of a Tesco meal deal, then perhaps you ned a better gig.
