Meeting new people in chalets

I'm self employed (in a husband and wife business partnership) and I do know what i earn. It does require a spreadsheet or two being constantly updated, one logging expenses and one logging fee invoicing and predicted fees.

We're VAT registered though and I do have to keep reminding myself that the VAT is not ours to keep........

After 7 years, I've still not got used to twice yearly tax bills. So much easier when it's taken at source.

No idea which is best, easiest, etc etc etc

Just different I suppose.

Are we doing chalet practice now?

Do you think it would be okay to ask about how many children the other dinner guests have, and where they live etc.?

This thread is making me a bit nervous, in case I ever end up in a chalet and I put my foot in it and say something awful and then have to sit next to the same person at dinner all week :lol:

Bedrock Barney - you sound very efficient :thumbup: - not like me at all
