They will accept prepared accounts (audited or otherwise) apparently.
I think this is something I can do myself - it's an incredibly simple setup so I should just be able to put them together and send them back with the form. I think.

Without wanting to give bad advice
I've just checked your profile and you run a charity. Dont you need to have audited accounts to maintain charity status?

'Shirters Anonymous' isn't a REAL charity, you oaf.

That's ok, i'm not a real accountant (well, I dont act like one anyway)
He'll have to pay "Schedule D - Shirters Tax", otherwise he'll get a visit from the inspector...THE BOTTOM INSPECTOR

It's a charity in the sense that I occasionally do altruistic things for absolutely no money whatsoever
and have, to date, made £150 which I put in there from the odd bit left over from wages and selling a couple of guitar pedals, which I spent on myself for spending hours on the Web site*. Until it gains a head of steam - hopefully over the spring and summer this year as the weather improves - I'll start fund-raising and applying for grants and take on an accountant to do all that shit for me. Until then, it's a charity in spirit only and isn't registered as such.
* I'm not sure 'desperately needing bog roll' is good justification for paying myself for twenty hours work, but hey, I'm cheap.

Course you can, dear boy.
Think of how many utter retards do it every year.

This is what I tell myself about driving.

Or not - the fucking theory book is difficult enough without trying to study it in Spanish.

I'm 37 this year
and the only time I've sat in the driver's seat of a car has been to skin up at a rave.

the thing i keep telling myself
is that if my grandad could learn at 50-plus, i can surely do it at half that age.

Granted, he had nothing much else to do at that age

the thing I keep telling myself
is 'you live in London, cars are a hindrance here, you don't need one'. As my daughter gets older this is liable to become less and less true....

Kiddo's just turned thirteen
and I still don't have a car. And we live in the relative 'sticks'.
