In other news, work was much improved today by my having had an early night and an excellent amount of sleep. Work is ticking over nicely and today I finished a long standing job so that I've nearly reached the point where I can say i'm done with the second quarterly returns. Hurrah!

I've been kept amused, as well, by priceless telephone conversations like this:-

Twit: Hi! It's [twit] from [such and such a nursery]. Well I've got the green Support Scheme form in front of me and I've read where it says that that to qualify when receiving Child Tax or Working Tax Credit, the parent must have an income of £24500 or less. Now on this Inland Revenue form I've got from the parent it says her annual income is £19000, so does she qualify?

Me: o_0

It's all good, clean fun :D
