    What is a good 'symbol' for an atheist to wear?

    What about a symbol for my belief system? What about a symbol for my belief system? Athiests look down on people who believe in a God because there is no proof that there is a God. But, unless Athiests can prove there is NO God, they are in no position to criticise. Which is why pragmatic...

    Churchills trip home for XMas

    Am following this thread with interest. I postponed my trip to London-Brussels from last weekend (thank god I did!) to this weekend, but I'm still worried about what the weather/roads will be like. Any advice from CUKers in the South east of England?

    Condensation

    I had an issue with condensation in my house....the condensation was so bad that the clothes in my wardrobe would get wet! Anyhow, I was told there was a leak from the roof and I spent a small fortune getting the 'leak' fixed. The problem still remained. What worked wonders was getting an air...

    Have accepted a permie job in Munich...

    I will take your advice and find an accountant in Germany. As I mentioned, I will be a permie in Germany so my tax should be deducted at source and I would love to have no extra paperwork.

    Have accepted a permie job in Munich...

    This would explain why my new employer has asked for my tax card, details of my current social security, details of number of days vacation I have taken this year etc. I'm in a scramble trying to get the info together. Maybe since I start work on Jan 3rd, all this info is not really necessary...

    Are pension contributions tranferable between countries?

    I will have to stay at my new permie gig in Munich for at least 5 years to qualify for the pension. Since I have did a 2 year permie stint in the UK some years ago, is it possible that I would only have to stick at the Munich job for 3 years in order to qualify for a pension?...*keeps fingers...

    Have accepted a permie job in Munich...

    I rent out my property in the UK and I was wondering if I will have to pay German tax on rents received. I already pay British tax, I just really would prefer not to have to submit German tax returns, as my taxes from now on should be PAYE. Any advice would be appreciated.

    Am I being tight

    You are not a tight git. I am. I never paid more than 40 gbp for my wife's presents before we got married. I never even bought her an engagement ring. I would have if she had wanted one, but she was not the kind to worry about these things too much. We've been married 7 glorious years, and she...

    Thermos Flask anyone recommend one ?

    I find I just can't drink coffee/tea that has been in a flask. Thermos flasks IME make coffee or tea smell a bit odd.
