    Two more questions

    (1) Is the 5k Tax Free dividend in addition to any salary you've had to date, or if would I have to pay tax anyway on a 5k divvy as I will have already earned a load this year.
    (2) How much can the company pay into the directors pension? Personally I can pay 40k per year, but is that the same if it comes from a LTD. Is the limit the same?

    If not, I will not be able to afford her in the gladiator outfit...

    I shall pop over and take a look, but doubt I will join. I won't join any Club that would have me as a member.

    Sounds like a plan to start out, with the intention of a full return (and so you can argue that the locations are temporary), and leave the money in the account for the year unless you need it.

    Stay outside IR35, stay away from public sector until the rules are clarified (and probably after that too), and welcome back
