Could someone explain what '5:30 in the morning' means please ? Not come across this term before.

Not pleasant, but I would recommend you ring them and ask them to send you a tax return form for each of the three years you think you have been taxed incorrectly. Although scary looking beasties, filling in these forms are the one and only way of getting it right in my opinion, and there is good on-line help with filling the forms out. A word of warning:) Once you get sent a tax return for whatever reason, you will probably get sent one every year. A point to remember is that the IR have all your records on computer. If a mistakes been made, it will be logged on their system, it just needs you to point them in the right direction. If you can, insist on getting a copy of the P11s etc from your accountants, if they cant stump up, the IR should have the figures already. If no figures are logged, it will be up to you to show what figures were involved. You are responsible for your tax coding and NIC, not your companies accountants or the IR...mistakes by others are annoying, but in their eyes its up to you to make sure the info is correct, and tell the IR if it isnt.

No offence James, but I assume you ended up in Kenya deliberately ? You were'nt heading for Kent originally were you ? Just for you, Alonsos just tried to ram Hamilton off the track in the first corners...actually he tried to shove him right out of Belgium:d

Whats got four legs and can split an arrow at 200 yards ? Dobbin Hood Who was the tallest, heaviest ever rider of a Grand National winner ? Lester Piggots cell mate A cowboy was riding across the plains of the old west, when he is captured by Indians. The tribe puts him on trial for crimes against the Indian Nation, and he is found guilty. "You have been sentenced to death," said the Chief, "but, as is our custom, you have three wishes to make as your last requests." The cowboy thought for a minute and said, "Well, for my first wish, I’ll need my horse." "Give him his horse," said the Chief. The cowboy whispered something into the horse’s ear, and the horse took off like a shot across the prairie. Twenty minutes later, the horse returned with a beautiful blonde woman on its back. The cowboy looked at this, shrugged his shoulders, and helped the young lady off the horse. He then took her into the woods and had his way with her. "Second wish," said the Chief. "I’ll need my horse again," said the cowboy. "Give him his horse," said the Chief. Once again, the cowboy whispered into the horse’s ear, and once again the horse rode off over the prairie. Thirty minutes later, the horse returned with a beautiful brunette on its back. The cowboy looked up and shrugged, helped the young lady off the horse, and went into the woods, same reason as before. "This is your last wish," said the Chief, "make it a good one." "I’ll need my horse again." "Give him his horse," said the Chief. The cowboy grabbed each side of the horse’s head, and put his face right up to the horse’s, and shouted "I said POSSE!"

I was caught molesting a shetland pony once. "what the f*** do you think you are doing ?" the farmer asked. "Er, (cough), er, (splutter) I, er, (cough)" I tried to explain, but the words just stuck in my throat. "Pull yourself together man, I didnt understand a word you said" exclaimed the farmer. "I'm sorry," I replied, "I'm feeling a little hoarse"

Preparing for a gympkhana ? Klu Klux Kanter ? *gives up*

Oh no. Cant see it being anyone else but him in the circumstances. Tragic.

Currently, Rufus featuring Chaka Khan. The old stuff is fantastic. Chaka on her own is pretty good too. One of my favorites... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Vh-DzCCyog&mode=related&search=

Smashing, sorted, thanks you two:)

I'm after the Man From Uncle theme music for a ring tone, mp3 / wav whatever. Its the Lolo Shifrin version I'm after if anyone is fussed. I've found links but not downloadable versions. Ta:)

Really ? I've been looking for someone to share my interest in the gastric juices of dogs for ages.

Friendly doormen (unless you're dressed as a troll or a cowboy), nice attractive foyer. Hang your flat cap / beanie / bandana up, walk straight through to the public bar and have a couple. If its a bit quiet, you could walk on through to the Members room, or the games room or watch the strippers in the Blue Bar downstairs. You may prefer to take your drinks straight up to the Technical Library upstairs. If the flags flying, the landlords in residence. Never met him but he seems to keep most of his regulars happy.

Two guys who would kick each others heads in if they met down an alley, but forced to tolerate each other in the office. We split them up, but they still had need to communicate with each other. An escalation of anonymous (to me, funny) hostilities (washing up liquid in coffee, tuna juice applied to coats etc etc) culminated in The Fart. Deliberate, and in front of witnesses. Serious stuff:( *snigger*

Good luck, and I mean that. After an apprenticeship and working in boatyards where the antics and goings on were a little 'rough', I find myself in an office environment where throwing a rolled up piece of paper at someone or deliberately farting next to someones desk is deemed as assault. Companies are running scared of legislation, and will not tolerate stuff like this simply because of potentialy expensive come backs from the 'assaulted' employee. We live in a world where a soldier who gets his limbs blown off receives a tenth of the compensation that an RAF typist gets for a thumb injury. A world where 'common sense' is no longer in the HR spellcheck dictionary.

I know its the Mail, but its not good (Alonso) reading. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/sport/motorsport.html?in_article_id=481912&in_page_id=1954

Yup, I was a wee bit pissed off, but I couldnt really odds that happening:d Ive three of the four Autoart 1:18th JGTCs, the fourth is very difficult to find. They are expensive I agree, but gorgeous are'nt they.

Assuming this resurection is for my benefit, thanks very much:) I actually got a result back in Oct last year http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=45814&highlight=case+notes&page=3 No problems at all since then. Alex posted back then the possible converter issue, and thats one thing I didnt try. If I get the problem again, thats the first thing I'll do.

Nice one Trig. It was my 'Dales Supra' that was involved in the Chicken / window / coffee / radiator episode...never did get it fixed.

Hmmm....A Mcmuffin bolt thread.... Nope, cant think of owt with wit worth posting.

I remember dreams best if I'm ill. I cant run in my dreams, and I seem to always have really long hair. I dreamt of waking up next to Jo Brand once, and her skin was like a hot crumpet smothered in butter. She was making a rattling sound then she took her head off and threw it at me and I woke up. Terrified me.

Dont blame you....I would have as well;)

I virtually would:)

We had au pairs when we were kids. We lived in a bungalow with sliding doors. I found I could push the middle of the bathroom door a wee bit and have a sneaky peak at Zelka while she was on the loo. Those were the days.

Bloody hell:)
