    I think the use of private time machines is adding to global warming. Especially the coal-fired ones.

    Sometimes I do find it difficult to believe our threaded. Everyone knows that fourth dimension travel is only 10p per light year in the Y Direction.

    Mileage, train fares, air fares, space shuttle fares, matter transporter fares.

    PS I also claim travel expenses for using my time machine. The English Inland Revenue (as it was then) argued that there is zero mileage. I trumped them by arguing that their rules state "travel expenses", and that there is travel - in the fourth dimension.

    In the UK I therefore claim 40p a year for the first 10,000 years per year, and 25p thereafter. In Denmark I can claim what I want, as I am on first-name terms with all of their ministers.

    As a company car driver I don't claim anything. I can't claim the 40/25p as it's not my car and to claim petrol I have to provide receipts for the petrol and work out exactly how much was used for my journey then claim that.

    As my client is 10 miles from home it's just too much effort...

    Mileage too. Is there something else more efficient you can do after you hit the 10,000@40p limit?

    I claim milage. It's far easier than trying to work out how much petrol/diesel you used for business and how much for peronal use.

    It costs more in time and accountancy to claim petrol. Allways claim mileage

    started a topic Mileage or Petrol Receipts

    Mileage or Petrol Receipts

    Who claims for Mileage and who claims for Petrol?

    I've been claiming petrol receipts for the last year or so as I use the company debit card but my new accountant was tut tutting, saying I really should have been putting 40 mile (something I used to do before the shop).

    Does everyone do mileage?
