To be honest I really didn’t know her that well.
I only knew her via Ant.
And no, Pete, I’m afraid I was just given far too much credit than I really deserved. I was simply people’s ‘fall guy’.. it was fun back then, but it’s really boring now; and I find it fascinating how that’s the only thing people seem to be talking about now’a’days. “The old days”. Why can’t people move on?
I am curious as to where one old chap got to, though, what ever happened to Owen Kash? I was quite fond of him, he just seemed to disappear one day. I think he ended up at Stoats for a while but not seen him since. Anyone still in contact?

Hello i’m going to set up a sex site… yes under 18’s can view it but i’ll tell them not to dont worry now can i be excused tax ? I think not Tom
Hm, I know I said I wasn’t going to rise to your abuse, but had to highlight that point, under 18s can’t view it. And read the post properly, too. Re: government helping new businesses set up, the government, and the state as a whole, would benefit in the long term. More successful businesses = richer people = more taxes = richer country = better state services = better schools = better education = even more successful businesses.
Whereas at the moment, the rich get richer, the poor get poorer, businesses are crumbling around our ears, and look at the state of the State.
If you can’t have a civil conversation Pete, politely go and calm down until you can.
I’m starting a family. Making money would be nice :wink: see the making money part isn’t the problem. It’s already happening and coming through, it’s just there’s also expenditure, and I could do without having to worry about tax, and having to pay an accountant.
It’s my first time going self-employed, so I have no idea what I’m putting on the forms or what I’m supposed to keep track of, it’s an absolute nightmare. I’m just really surprised the government isn’t more supportive in times of recession, that’s all.
I’m sorry the thread has caused so much upset, I didn’t mean to provoke any abuse and not sure why Pete is being so hostile.
Tax is a necessity, we all know that. I’m a Socialist, I believe in state controlled industry. But fair’s fair, it’s the rich and already established businesses that should be taxed, the newly created businesses and the poor should be relieved and exempt until they, too, become rich. In the end it only makes sense that everybody, especially the government, will benefit because then there’ll be more successful businesses to tax in the long-term!
I think it would be a good idea to take Somalia, to be honest. It’d put a stop to the Somalian pirates that are currently going on a rampage. Would be hard for them to slip out of Somalian waters with the Nimitz shadowing them.
I’m not quite sure how you got that I’m sympathising with the Chinese from my posts :? thought I made it quite clear I was criticising and condemning their actions in Tibet.
I see I’m the only one who has grown up here, I’m really rather disappointed. Martin has done a great job here reforming JC, I thought it had finally grown up enough for me to come back where I can unwind and have a chit chat about things without people living in the past.
I’m really quite sorry I was wrong. I shan’t troll with you though old chap, I’ll leave you to you arguing with yourself. If you can’t be civil I’ll just start ignoring you, looks like I’ll have to be the mature one between us and take the high ground. Quite silly really considering you’re twice my age.
It’s just it’d be common sense, right, for the government to say “..here’s a grant. Spend it on the equipment/stock you need. When you start making enough profit that you can support yourself, ie: pay your bills, support your fiancee, then you can pay us back the grant. Then once you’ve paid the grant back, you can then start paying the tax once we feel you’re in the position to without putting your new business venture at risk or forcing you to budget or struggle to meet any sudden server upgrade bills such as if you exceed your bandwidth or SQL limit..”
Anyone with logic and common sense would say that.
Not..
“Ohh! You’re going to make money? Right.. that’s it. Fill out this form and give us it NOW or it’s tax evasion and I’ll ‘ave you!”
What ever the business I don’t think it’s fair.
Such as my fiancee has moved to Yorkshire with me. I was going to go move alllll the way over to her. Because she had her pet grooming business, it was new, only a year old, but she had to pay tax, and £800 p/m on rent, and the government expected her to be able to pay for promotion, advertising, equipment, insurance, wages etc on top of that? You know she was living on £5 a week approximately for around 8 months because she couldn’t even afford to pay herself a wage?
Needless to say it’s gone under, hence why I’m selling londongroomers.co.uk as I designed and ran her website for her for the shop but cancelled the hosting on it now and parked the domain since she no longer needs it.
Now if the government had helped her with the business and eased up on the tax that business would be booming right now cos she was getting a lot of custom, but she just needed a year or two to keep the ball rolling and get the revenue up.
I was merely enquiring as to whether anyone has ever had any success trying to bargain with the government and whether they’ve ever had help with their business, because there are apparently programmes where the government do help you setup the business, tax-free, but I’m not sure how you have to be eligible. (Probably have to speak Punjab and dress up in PJ’s)
That’s a bit of an exaggeration on Pete’s behalf. I’ve been 4 names. Tommy ToXen, ChatGuideRS, Smiley.. and Tom.
However, myself, Scouse, Aaron (not the DJ Aaron, Aaron as in Aaron Coady a BOSer, not sure if he still is here but he still is at mine, turned out to be a nasty two-faced piece of work, long story), Darth liked to play a few wind ups and giggles. At one time Kate & I conspired in PM to pretend I was infact her and it was all very amusing and all a very long time ago and all very boring and old now and all very child’s play.
Just come to say hello, post a few times now and again to relax and get away from my work a little bit.
I’m really not interested in your dramas and trolling. Just here to support old friends and let ’em know I haven’t forgotten the place that made me ;)
That’s called propaganda Pete old boy.
Didn’t even bother reading it because I know it’ll be some liberal wishy washy stuff pretending the Chinese hug Tibetan babies and shower Tibet with flowers and money. :roll:
They created it in a lab. It’s a mutant strain, it has been proven. This particular strain does not occur naturally in that part of the world. Several Tibetan towns are sealed off by their Chinese oppressors after releasing the plague upon them.
It’s well known fact the Chinese want to ethnically genocide the Tibetans. They’ve been doing it years, now they’ve found a faster way. Just unleash a deadly plague on them that kills within 24 hours.
But of course, like any other brainwashed liberal fool, you’ll rather listen to the BBC and hide behind your sofa when ever someone says they have a headache incase it’s the Swine Flu. Let’s ignore the fact that thousands of Tibetans are currently having their lungs melting inside their chests dying of a horrible, excruciating inhumane pain at the hands of China’s new chemical warfare weapon and Chinese sympathizers who make up excuses for them such as you via the BBC.
Not really, otherwise I’d have put the URL.
I’d rather keep my other site under wraps truth be told. I feel dirty even making it.. but.. recession on, got engaged, getting married, having a baby, sex sells.. !! Was my fiancee’s idea to make the sex site.
There’ll always be perverts on the net. Might as well make money from ’em.
It was a nonely-veilled non-disguise of the disgust that I have to pay an unelected dictator (Moron Clown) money before I’ve even got a business established.
Knowing full well where the money is going !!! (pockets of greedy MPs and tax sponging dole monsters!)
Had I setup a market stall or a high street shop I’d still have shared the same disgust and posted the same rant. I checked back on my post and can’t see any hint of what the URL of the sex shop/site/business is, so if it’s disguised I’ve disguised it so well that even my own eyes can’t see the URL.
There’s really no need to be a troll. I forgot how paranoid and argument-hungry JCers were to be honest :lol:
Ooer, went to download Maxthone and Zone Alarm Pro blocked access to it, apparently it’s a “spy site”
