    In some countries, that would buy you a couple of "working" girls for the night!!

    Not sure if they would do you a receipt tho...

      they would - but it would not say working girls on. They usually put it is food/drinks.

      as long as HMRC don't check the company out you will be fine.

              Check the expenses clause in your contract. I always try to make sure any expenses (authorised by email of course) are added to my invoice rather than reimbursed directly from the client...
