Heyup guys. I have recently been offered a self employed job doing taxis and coaches for one of the islands large firms. I was just wondering if you could give me a bit of advice. I'll probably find it out once I start but would be nice to know before hand. The biggest question I have is, is it true that declaring myself self-employed for taxi driving is different to other occupations? What sort of stuff can I/do I need to claim on my tax returns as expenses etc etc? Do you tend to have to invoice the companies for the hours you worked or do they give you a wage slip? I know it may be different between companies but was wondering if there's a general rule. Apart from those, do you have any other tips or advice? I have my knowledge test Thursday and my Medical the week after so won't be long Cheers in advance guys/gals -

yes - quite a fine looking goat. We seemed to be living in a split level house and people were pushing him into the main room which was on three levels and had a kind of central island, so he would go round and round, and I was the only one who could get him outside - plus there was a stair gate at the top of one of the small sets of stairs, to stop him getting back into the main house, but he could get through that very easily...it was a riot! (I think actually that the goat was replacing Socks who loves to run up stairs to try and get to chase him, and then he hides and jumps out at R like Kato in the Pink Panther films) rofl. aaaw Armell, fear of heights must be awful - I'm ok with that. I misread you saying your hubbie had to push pull you off the bridge, and was going to say you should stop telling people that your hubby pushed you off a bridge -
Gifting to your friends – Sending gifts to friends is a great way to encourage them to reciprocate the behavior. Giving energy to each other is one of the best gifts players can give. Visit your friends daily – When you visit your friends daily you’ll earn gems, coins, and experience points. Thus its in your best interest to visit all of your friends, especially early in the game. Check your crops – When your crops are ready, you will need to harvest them right away. They will spoil in this game and you will have to start all over if they do. Wait to buy things – Don’t be so quick to buy Treasure Isle items from the store as most items must be purchased with cash. Currently, you can get a lot of these items through gifts sent by your friends or people posting stuff on their walls. This is particularly helpful early in the game with you don’t have much Treasure Isle money. Keep an eye on your news feed – When someone posts something on their wall you should be there to take advantage of it. Click on the item they are giving away to grab it and help improve your island. Dig it! – Go digging for treasures as much as you can. The more you dig, the more Treasure Isle coins, experience points, and treasures you’ll earn. Never ignore gifts – Gifts, especially fruit and energy, is your best friend in this game. Make it a point to grab these every time they become available so you can stay energized to complete various tasks and achievements. Harvest your gem tree – Make sure you harvest your gem tree daily so your friends can collect a gem from you. Ask your friends for fruit – On the left side of your island home, you will see the fruit icon. Place your mouse over it and it will say “Ask friends to send you fruit”. Click that icon and you can post a request for friends to send you fruit that can be used to re-energize. Guide credit goes to http://tomuse.com -
The thing is, have you ever heard anyone going to honeymoon in CHINA? Places of Honeymooners are usually like Gold Coast, Maldives, Bali, European islands or even local favourites Langkawi, Tanjung Aru, Pangkor Laut... etc... BUT I never heard of honeymooners going to China for honeymoon la wei, even CHINESE people don't even go to China for honeymoon. China is a tourist place for family sight seeing, yes. Which Tour agent wants to promote China as a place for honeymooners? Is like promoting Taman Negara as a place of shopping, totally unrelated, right? That's just show what kind of taste the person have. Honeymoon is huge thing for a married couple, it's a celebration of being together. If you really want to spent honeymoon, you just 'tekan' abit more, go somewhere better. Even some local place are good enough but places that is for newly married couples. ofcourse. Regardless the trip is being paid for or free, I have a better taste for my honeymoon and I'm sure my future wife will to. -
Madonna's daughter Lourdes Leon shows off her figure in VERY risqué shredded black dress while on tropical getaway with singer Eartheater Madonna's daughter, Lourdes Leon, left little to the imagination for her 452,000 Instagram fans and followers in her latest post. In the early morning hours of Saturday, the 26-year-old posted a couple of photos of herself striking some poses in a revealing black shredded dress alongside singer Eartheater. The unique frock, which was cut side-to-side from top to bottom, barely covered much of her figure, leaving her womanly curves and matching black underwear nearly on full display. Risqué: Lourdes Leon, 26, left little to the imagination when she struck a couple of poses in a black shredded dress, leaving most of her figure on display, alongside musician Eartheater And from the sounds of her caption, it appears the two ladies are on a tropical getaway to Grand Cayman B.W.I., which is the largest of the three Cayman Islands in the Carribbean, and the location of the territory's capital, George Town. -
Designer: Thylaco Original Creator: Blue Tongue Requires: Jurassic Park: Operation genesis, follow in file instructions to use with pretty much any mod, though they will look different dependant on textures. Public Domain: Yes Language: All that are supported by the game Bugs: All of the plants that don't have a square for placement cannot be deleted, though anything can be placed on top of them and they can be placed through anything, including each other. When placed in the water these make a little island, though the terrain then can't be modified around them. It also isn't possible for dinos to eat these plants, the only way for this would be to replace the model names in "Trees.ini". Description: A mod that adds plants you can place and terrain tiles. The plants include: the trees Dicroidium, Elatocladus, Nothofagus, Wairarapaia, Eucalyptus & Weichselia the land plants Pleuromeia, Hausmannia & Coniopteris (this one can be placed as an epiphyte on all trees except Eucalyptus and Weichselia) the aquatic plants Pluricarpellatia, Mirasolita & Aquaephyllum Screenshot: Gondwanan Plant and Terrain Pack.zip -
Bean Bag Buccaneers is a two player children's game, the object of which is to pick up your treasure chest on the central island and sail back safely. Each player has a giant sailing ship as their main game piece. Each ship has a removable sail, two trigger-action side panels, and a huge spring-driven cannon. Players take turns moving forward along a prescribed track and shooting bean bags at their opponent's ship. A hit on one of the side panels will force it to pop off and give the player a free shot at the other side; a hit forcing the sail off becalms the ship for a turn. To add to the pirate flavor, each player also has an eye patch. Wearing these will slightly affect depth perception and add a marginal bit of sport to the shooting. This game retailed for the somewhat impressive sum of $16 back in 1962. With its huge plastic ships (close to a foot long), giant vinyl play mat, and the eye patches, it may well stand as one of the more overproduced games of the early 1960s. Bean Bag Buccaneers. -

Hi peops and yes i expect this will allow many of you to take the pxxs out of me, but having booked the ferry for the TT next year I am now wondering if we would be better going in the car rather than the bike - what does anyone else think - but first listen to my reasons please 1. i have only been on the b king once and it was ok but its a long way to heysham 2. we are going for 11 nights not 8 like originally planned - I know Daves top box is big but its not that big for 11 days worth of luggage - shoes, jeans, spare jeans, jumper, coat, t-shirts etc - (and yes I am happy to take the bare essentials and wear things more than once before anyone starts ) 3. wot if its raining - really raining - i dont mind getting wet but want to be safe. Has anyone else gone in the car before? what do you think an alternative or will we feel really stupid and be the only people on the island not on a motorbike still excited that we are going though -

I SOOOOO know what you are going through Blossom. I would like to comment on what you said about God being quiet. I'm in a season where he's talking to me about EVERYTHING else besides the area where I need the most direction in. Last weekend I went away on a weekend excursion just so I could get away from my normal surroundings and seek God (regarding the issue that he seems to NOT be speaking in). i spoke to the Lord about his quietness in this area and once again...NOTHING! I sort of got a little frustrated until I opened up this devotional book I have. It said... If God isn't speaking in an area, the first thing we do is think that he is ignoring us, but could it be that you are right where you need to be and no instructions or directions are needed? A loving God will direct you so you can be in the place he needs you to be in. Let's rejoice in times of quietness because God's silence can mean that I'm in the right place at he right time. When I read this, it was better than God speaking it to my heart. I think he knows that if he would have spoken it to me, I would not have believed He said it. He gave me those words in a devotional on the exact day I was becoming a little frustrated with His silence. GLORY TO GOD!! As far as your job is concerned...if the job is for you, then it's for you. God will hold the door open since he's the only one with the sovereignty to open and shut doors. I would apply for it even though you are not in the physcial condition to interview. The amount of time they have until they no longer accept applications may be a ways off. Just do it...you have NOTHING to lose. Let us know how things turn out and may God give you a FASTER RECOVERY than expected. Blessings!! -
Sorry to hear about your comp! I unplug EVERYTHING in the house during storms. This could be at 3am or 3pm, i will walk around the whole house unplugging tv's,dvd,stereos, plugged in cell phones, computers, modems and telephone lines. I've lost (to date)....one fax machine, one computer, two stereos and a tv. The t.v one wasn't my fault...lightening went through the antena...go figure! I lost my fax machine cause i forgot about the telephone wire and...aparently the lightening "jumped" to the stereo that WAS unplugged next to it. We have "lightening balls" sometimes. I hear about an occurance on the island about once or twice every few years. They are not fun. My husband has seen them on two occasions. They are literally balls of lightening bigger than tennis balls and sometimes they are the size of soccer balls that "float" or "wiggle" around the room for a minute, destroying electrical stuff that it touches. I guess it could burn you too...but its not happenend to anyone here. So..Lazar....UNPLUG EVERYTHING IN THE HOUSE!!!!! -
Kissing is considered to be an ancient human interaction, as old as humanity itself. Some scientists have theorised that it was originally inspired by mothers passing food to their babies with their mouths, and subsequently affection became associated with touching lips. Yet there are some cultures that do not engage in kissing at all. Kissing is apparently unknown among the Somalians, the Lepcha of Sikkim and the Sirono of Bolivia. The people of Mangia Island in the South Pacific did not do it until Europeans arrived in the 1700s. When the Thongi of South Africa saw whites kissing, they apparently said "Look at them - they eat each others saliva and dirt". Adults in some Amazonian tribes did not kiss, though the children did. Still other cultures kiss without using their lips. The Inuit practice the "Eskimo Kiss" by rubbing noses, or putting noses together and inhaling each other's breath. This kiss is also performed by numerous Pacific Islander cultures, including the Maori of New Zealand, where it is a ritual greeting. In ancient India, sanskrit writings describe a similar method of kissing, and anthropologists have suggested that India is actually the birthplace of kissing as we know it today. Indian sculptures are the first human cultural artifact to depict kissing, and the theory is that the idea of "exchanging breath" led to locking lips. Interesting, Indian films today do not show kissing at all. In ancient China, kissing was considered to be on a par with coitus, and thus was confined to the bedroom. This led European explorers to conclude that the Chinese did not kiss at all. In strict Muslim countries public kissing does not occur, and in some cases people have been arrested for kissing outside the home. In Vietnam, spouses do not kiss outside the home, and not in front of the children. And parents rarely kiss children, except when they are small babies. In some areas of Italy and other Mediterranean countries, friends greet each other by kissing on the mouth, men and women both. Arab men kiss each other on the cheek in greeting. In France, protocol demands a kiss on each cheek, while the Dutch throw in a third one for good luck. In the animal world, the highly sexed Bonobo chimpanzees are known to kiss each other passionately. And orangutans in Borneo have learnt to kiss each other by observing humans. I like kissing. I kiss my family, my friends (on the cheeks) and I kiss babies if I get the chance, not that I do very often, oh and Socks occasionally gets a peck on the top of his head -

Good Day Everyone ... I was watching the news and i was shocked with this ... The most powerful earthquake to hit Japan in at least 100 years unleashed walls of water that swept across rice fields, engulfing towns, dragging houses onto highways and tossing cars and boats like toys. Local media reported at least 32 deaths, with more casualties feared. And the 8.9-magnitude quake, which struck at 2:46 p.m., prompted the U.S. National Weather Service to issue a tsunami warning for at least 20 countries. The quake's epicenter was 373 kilometers (231 miles) away from Tokyo, the United States Geological Survey said. But residents there continued to feel aftershocks hours after the quake. More than 30 aftershocks followed, with the strongest measuring at 7.1. praying that all who lives there will be safe ... http://www.cnn.com/2011/WORLD/asiapcf/03/11/japan.quake/index.html?hpt=T1&iref=BN1 et us pray for them .... you can also paste this to your status ... COPY AND PASTE NOW! If you have friends or family in Hawaii, Guam, Indonesia, Taiwan, Philippines, Russia, Marcus Island, Northern Marianas or other areas around these countries ring and wake them if they are 2km or closer within the coast line etc as tsunami warning -they are saying on CNN for people to ring people as people dont know. From the quake that just happened in Japan. This is happening now
