So do I take it you don’t work in a mortuary?
I have done, a long time ago, but not anymore, and not in this country.
There was a thread on here where I posted I needed the patience of a Saint in my job (which I do now) so Teapot asked what I did. I’m not going to divulge what I do for a living on here, so I thought of a previous role and mischieviously said mortuary technican.
I thought Teapot would pick up on the irony but didn’t. Instead I think she said words to the effect that it suited me, more I suspect as an insult, to what she feels is my “cold” personality (rather than alluring to the compassion, repect and empathy required, particulary when dealing with family members of the deceased,) so I thought I’d carry on the pretence.
So there you have it. No doubt Teapot will want to shoot me but she’ll have to join the back of the queue. :D

K2 scheme. You just know the BBC are up to their neck in it.I thought Carr was employed by Channel 5? Or Dave or some other channel?
On a day of fast-moving developments yesterday….. Downing Street have raised eyebrows by suggesting it may now abandon plans for David Cameron and senior ministers to disclose their tax returns
Ha ha! what a surprise :D

Self employed ppl can quite easily avoid or evade paying tax.
Really? Does someone want to tell me how?
Self employed ppl quite often ask for cash in hand. They may declare some earnings but not all. Easier to hide cash payments so no paying tax on their full income.
Also, self employed ppl can set up their own company, pay themself a small salary and the rest in dividends so lessening their tax burden.
Having a Limited Company paying your wages and then dividends is neither illegal or immoral..if someone works hard and sets up their own company/companies and wants to determine their own wages etc why shouldn’t they? Seems unless your P.A.Y.E you must be up to something dodgy or hiding something… :roll:

Ah I see…you mean you lied.
a lot of jobs are similar to working in a mortuary.
An American politician called Huey Long was elected on an anti-tax platform, and the first thing he did was to raise taxes. When his aide asked how they were going to explain it to the people, Hey’s response was “Simple. Tell em I lied”.
I like Panda. She can be a pain in the bum like everyone but me, but she makes some good points, and is always provocative (that means, intellectually alive).
I kinda think you are a teacher Panda?! I am probably way off track :lol:

You’re assuming that Jimmy Carr is the only millionaire with connections to the K2 deal. [-X
