Original Receipts

A number of replies on this thread refer to keeping all original receipts in case the taxman does an inspection. I also see Parasol Umbrella Company recommended several times. Parasol insist that you send in all original receipts (e.g. for rail travel) to them in order to validate your expenses claim. How then does this 'square' with keeping all receipts in case the taxman also wants to see original receipts?

Parasol will be obliged to either forward them on to the tax man, or to return them to you if you need to. They're not going to get destroyed.
