"Your accountant will make sure it is free of corporation tax"

i.e. he'll list it under "expenditure" along with everything else. Clever chaps, accountants.

I made a donation last night for sports relief and the email from them doesn't contain the company name.

I made the transaction using the company card, so I'll just print off the receipt and hand it over to the accoutant
