Rest in Peace
October 21st, 2008
It’s a giant step for a single man, but a negligible step for mankind: I have finally managed to complete and file my tax returns or, to use the UK tax man’s term, my 2008 self-assessment.
So, now it is in the hands of Royal Mail and I have my peace until the tax officer contacts me with questions regarding my calculations. I can’t wait to see what they say (and, more to the point, whether they follow my arguments), but at the same time dread the moment of opening their brown envelop of response.
I don’t mind paying what I am due, but I absolutely hate the work and pain required to get there. Well…. for now, I can rest. In peace.
