You'll need to login to read it all of course, & it's not strikingly interesting.

Other than it's a company horse.

This wouldn't perchance be related to this AccountingWibble thread?

I wonder if you could get away without paying the congestion charge? Or parking fines.

A different sort of congestion springs to mind.

Good for mushrooms, or so I am told.

Horses can and do kick.

You probably just need a really strong magnet to 'clamp' a horse.

No, I am chuckling because if I was a horse and a nasty, bald thug was clamping my leg, he would be covered in mounds of honking horse-tulip.

I am not googling for a picture to link in case the missus gets the wrong idea or the NSA comes knocking, so you will have to use your imagination.

I assume you had in mind the old s.189 (1) ICTA 1970 allowance :

"If the holder of an office or employment is necessarily obliged to incur and defray out of the emoluments thereof the expenses of travelling in the performance of the duties of the office or employment, or of keeping and maintaining a HORSE to enable him to perform the same, or otherwise to expend money wholly, exclusively and necessarily in the performance of the said duties, there may be deducted from the emoluments to be assessed the expenses so necessarily incurred and defrayed."
