    Home last night to find a discovery notice from HMRC on t'doormat for y/e 2013.

    Having studied the numbers, I believe they might well have a point.

    Looks like previous employer reported one set of figures to Hector, and another set of figures to me. Clearly, it's only when big-co's HR departments get involved in things that the wheels fall off.

    I'm gonna have a beer I think, try and recover from this affront to my careful financial management.

      I have been woefully neglectful of my Super Monkey Car, which has been sitting unused for many months. As a result, its battery is flat, presumably from powering the clock

      The battery is now charging in the kitchen. So with a bit of luck the car can get moving again tomorrow, just in time to be taken for its MOT

              Yum.

              Though that'll be a while yet.

              Got to go & buy some more liver coz I'm on the last pack.
              Reminds me saw lamb's (sheep's) liver in the cut down meat section earlier. They had taken 20p of the price.

              Was unimpressed with the price reductions normally they take a minimum of £1. They obviously cottoned on that everyone goes to that section to stock up on meat and pizza to put in the freezer.

                    Thanks.

                    On closer inspection I can see the figures from Hector are indeed correct and the figures I supplied are not. And I have found why. So now I need to throw myself on the mercy and leniency of our friends at HMRC

                    But first, a beer. It's >needed.

                      One of the ZeitCorollas has a permanent drain of about 600mA with everything switched off, which is sufficient to completely flatten the battery in a week if it's not used.

                      Hence the creation of the ZeitCorollaBatteryCharger(tm), which charges the battery when it drops to about 12.4V until it reaches about 13.8V, at which time it stops the charging.

                      It works quite well.
