    Setting up a Company? be a Director or not?

    I'm slightly confused by this.. Is not being a director some kind of defence against S660A, or something?

    lunch with pimp

    The only times I've met agents they've spent the whole time talking about how much money they're earning, what car they're getting next, where they've just been on holiday, where they're going on holiday, how much their houses cost.. Bit like you lot, really! :eek

    Image editing with Adobe Photoshop CS3

    You'll need to crop, or have blank bits on 2 edges. Resize so the image is the right width but too tall (or the right height but too wide) then change the canvas size to the correct end dimensions.

    Yet he's a fairly successful politician, is he not?

    Boris Johnson - Mayor of London?

    He may not be PC, but what's Boris been wrong about that hasn't been majority politicial opinion at the time? He's different because he sometimes sticks his neck out and says things that others won't, and the affected buffoonery is his way of absorbing fallout that would have ended the careers...

    Found a contract without using an Agency

    Try some other umbrellas.. Failing that, setting up a Ltd should be quick - just use a high street bank rather than Cater Allen (will be recommended by many) as they may still have a gigantic backlog.. VAT reg will take about half a year but no need for that just to invoice and get paid. :)

    MBA as an Expense

    Yes, OK, we know what your personal opinion is about the requirement (or lack of) for qualifications and I happen to agree with you completely. However, my company does not get lucrative project management contracts ostensibly because nobody who works for it has PM qualifications or very much PM...

    I think the Wii is quite fun, I'm just not sure whether I should sabotage my own productivity to quite that extent! So where might alreadypacked be at the moment..?

    Does it always get like this in the evenings? And, unrelated, should I buy a Wii?

    MBA as an Expense

    You don't think YourLittleCo would stand to gain hugely by investing in an MBA for its director? Its profits could double, or triple.

    MBA as an Expense

    So if one's (large corporate) permanent employer pays for one's MBA, is there tax payable on the £30K BIK?
