BN66 - Round 2 (Court of Appeal)

[orientalist]

good quote!

Sorry about this (my inner qa geek won't let it go)

I have known a great many troubles,
but most of them never happened.
Mark Twain

HMRC have known many troubles, but most of them are of their own making

i can remember once being told "worrying doesnt make the situation go away or any better". Sounds simple but think about it..

[BarneyCool]

Easier said than done!

Exactly.

Eat, drink and be merry. Enjoy your children, house, holidays, car.
When and if the sh!t hits the fan, then head down to the local DHSS office.

Worrying about it is a waste of energy and life and will drive you to an early grave.

Try telling my wife that.

It's hard not to worry if you could lose your home and everything you've worked for.

This whole situation has angered me more than anything else I've encountered in my life.

I can accept the random curveballs that life throws at you - illness, recessions, natural disasters etc.

I've even been seriously wronged by a few individuals over the years, including a close family member, and managed to shrug it off.

But when your own Government does something spiteful and vindictive without any care or concern for the familes on the receiving end, then that's something I can never forgive.

Totally Agree DR,
Funny enough I was watching the Robin Hood film starring Russell Crowe currently running on Sky and thinking this is kind of familiar !!!

Awaiting the same judgement?

Wonder if this is the same case as ours?

No it was, I am pretty sure, an EBT.

Aberdeen asset management also got hit recently for a failed EBT.

All of which just goes to show that any talk of doing deals is so much hogwash. HMRC want their money and don't care who they have to bankrupt in pursuit of it.

Tried to fax something through to them today. Their fax machine wouldnt pick up. Bunch of c,*nts.

What's the point in telling people you can 'contact us on the following fax number 08459153417' if your ******* fax machine is switched off!? You ******* bunch of ****wit incompetents.
