do it - although she may have to complete a Tax Return

I have been advised to do it but to make her share more in line with the duties & responsibilities that she does so in my case 25-30% of the dividends is what we are going for in her name.

That's a lot of money for a leg over and someone who does your cooking, washing and ironing...

She's not even that good a cook

What happens if you split up?

Well she's my wife so if we split up she'll take me to the cleaners anyway!!
