Letter from HMRC regarding foreign income

[JK0]

You don't want to make an issue of this, as you will have to declare it when you do eventually move. This will likely put off most buyers.

All you can do is sell up. (People above me in my old flat had laminate flooring, and went clubbing until 2am every night. Then they couldn't sleep,...

[JK0]

Yes. But all notified to my accountant, (and foreign pages completed every year.)...

[JK0]

I have received a rather rude letter from HMRC accusing me of not declaring foreign income/gains. This is a mystery to me, as for over twenty years I have sent all my papers to my UK accountant to interpret. Accompanying the letter is a questionaire giving four options to tick.

1.) I need to bring my

What Stew said above. However I would also send a gardener over every month from now on, and tell tenant rent is going up to pay for this.

[JK0]

Year's rent up front?

[JK0]

It's all bullying, Andrew. If you give an oik a way to extract money from businesses, don't be surprised if he takes it.

I think you might as well have the consumer unit updated, (don't they all recommend that?) and then maybe you'll get five years.

[JK0]

What's to stop the new street flat owners giving out the amended address without any formal procedure at all? Presumably the main problem is you being lumbered with their parcels.

[JK0]

No problem then, surely? ...

[JK0]

'Body cots'?

Strewth, I know Windsor's expensive, but I'd have thought there is not much of a market for just renting a bed. ...

This Irish guy's talks are very interesting:

[JK0]

Yeah. I take it there is an off peak circuit for hot water & heating?...

[JK0]

I usually get the firm which replaced the old electricity board to provide an E7 meter free of charge. Are you no longer with that firm?

[JK0]

I don't know what Dody Ron got up to yesterday, but almost all the rubber seals from the sink waste now seem to be missing. I've had to re-plumb it today, but getting it back together, it was still blocked further down the waste pipe. Eventually I had to take it apart again and use my drain clearing...

[JK0]

Guess I'm the only one. ...

[JK0]

Anyone get the impression JPK is anti-landlord?

[JK0]

I suspect he'll make up his wages by recommending lots of unnecessary work. O/p will be unable to get anyone else to do the work, without the new firm going through the same testing rigmarole....

[JK0]

I contacted Dody Ron myself last night, as my friend seems unable, and they've called today. They told him he needs to get a plumber to tighten up the plastic fittings under the sink.

Err... wtf am I paying Dody Ron over £80 for?

[JK0]

Then put some timeswitches inside the consumer unit connected to the panel heaters. Presumably the storage heater will keep the chill off....

[JK0]

Pay up the £130 and hope they don't notice the deed of covenant clause IIWY. That might cost a few thousand if they spot it.

[JK0]

You're still sucking petrol from the bottom of an empty tank. See if you say the same in a year's time....
