I impulse bought a Breitling watch last week, which cost a bit more than a grand. In the good old days I could have put this through the business, as it's a reliable time source that could be used to synchronise Netware servers - a must in the days before NTP availability. I know a guy who put his £2000 TAG through the business and passed an inspection for that reason.

I could do 1/2 day on a saturday for £800 + vat but no sundays.
You could put me down as DSE H&S auditor

Your development machine probably needs a new 50" screen plus audio enhancements.
New Company bike and I'm not talking about Co Sec.
A small customer event maybe you and a few suitable customers that like a shandy at a Golf course.

Any suggestions?
Extra points if 'can be' wholly and exclusively for business!

Ps... no hookers, drugs, booze or a trip to the casino!

Blow it on an electric guitar and an amp, learn to play if you can't already and turn the volume up which is great stress relief. You never know it could change your life.
