Your thoughts callers?

My inclination (as in most things) is to be guided by The Velvet Underground:

I'm feeling good, I'm feeling so fine
Until tomorrow, but that's just some other time

I'm sure you can lawyer your way out of the tax and if you can't then you can out ride them on your new bike

[AllanB]

The Bike - you deserve it. There will always be tax to pay, the bike will not always be there.

Pay your tax!

if you dont pay your tax how are all the bludgers going to afford smokes and woodstock 8%rs for xmas

[fridayflash]

find a way to make the bike purchase tax deductable! 'promotional tool' or 'deliverys bike' mind you that'd only serve to bring your next tax bill down rather than help with the one you have. whats your line of business btw?

p.s, id buy the bike

[caseye]

Buy the BIKE, luke!
The FORCE is strong in this one.

Good work man. You can't let them away with that jazz.
They withheld thousands from a friends business 2 years ago (due to the stupid paying ahead way it works (what about the interest they make off that aye!)) as things went a bit downhill for him, and then they took 7 months to send him the cheque.
If it took you 7 months to pay or contact them they'd have you locked up.

Pay your tax AND buy the bike.

Pay your tax AND buy the bike.

I think that will be the go. The secret of comedy is timing. I can use the money I have set aside for tax, then when the grey fuckers come knocking I will be able to pay them. I've missed out on a couple of bikes this year and I dont want to miss out again.

Needs vs wants isn't it...
At the end of the day life is generally easier if you keep nice n square with the taxman.

Pay your tax!

tax benefits everyone
