Money - that's what I want!

Funny, that given my first comment on the financial aspect of my business that I get a few comments?

Well, given that a VAT return is required at approx 60k at turnover, this would require sales of £1k a week or just over!

As I am a retail genius (a quote from a famously retail w*nker who made me redundant a few years ago,) I am happy to say that my sales are better than that!

Retail is detail, its 80% perspiration and 20% inspiration etc etc!

I can`t help it if people like me robbing them can I?

Suffice to say I am still broke, in debt, and working 7 days a week.

Sales for vanity, profit for sanity and "the family" are another line on the "Expense" heading!

I am so happy though without a boss, head office, emails from t*ssers trying to justify their existence, even though its cold, wet and dark sometimes on the market!

As McD`s would say "I`m lovin` it!"

All Mod Cons!

For those still tuned in, the band has launched its web site: The Reaction

Work is still in progress but having just seen the latest version myself, I have to say I think it looks pretty cool!

Life is returning to normal, (if there is such a thing!) and the celebrations of the last two weeks were completed last night with the wife and I celebrating our 24th wedding anniversary. As a special treat I went to practise with the boys and she retired early to bed!

Before there is an outcry from the female reader we did have a nice lunch out on Sunday, and we bought each other some choccies!

Unfortunately a new boiler, a holiday and someone`s 18th birthday party have somewhat depleted the funds, and to cap it all I had to file my first VAT return today. Apparently the taxman owes me some money - woohooooo! (methinks he will find some devious way of getting it back though!)
