    Claiming an e-book reader such as an Amazon Kindle on expenses

    I agree with you, what I`m saying it is up to the individual, no-one has a definite answer for everything. I don`t claim lunch/ meals as some people do because I think that is taking it a bit far but others on this board and others I speak seem to be happy to do it. In my eyes to claim for a...

    Paying out Div`s- Timings

    If I have to declare the DIV`s at the same time, can I withhold the actual payments of two of them until each 1/4. From a HMRC point of view, I would like to keep two DIV`s at per 1/4 so it does not look like a wage as per many suggestions. However I presume since I declare them per month HRMC...
