Just before Julie had the terrible diagnosis posty delivered a brown envelope. Now for those with a dirty mind it was not.

StuG monthy, July centre page spread, Ausf E in the buff nor was it

'Cor look at the size of them, is that 16 inch' July's battleship fanciers monthy.

It was from the tax man saying I owed them £290. In a state of shock/anger, I contacted the excellent payroll officer who kindly sorted out my pension and tax, he just said leave it with me, then Julie had the diagnosis so I forgot about it.

Then a letter arrived today in another brown envelope saying in short my taxes had been calculated incorrectly for a while and they owed me £890!! Phoned my mate who had spotted errors and kindly dealt with the Tax man for me. What a guy, I owe him a large breakfast, he likes a breakfast.

So treated myself to a IJN battleship coming from Japan and the rest will pay for my shed and go towards the modelling room.

At last something to cheer me up!

Nice one Bob... Good to hear some good news!
 
Well Bob you were due some good luck and this is a nice start. Let's hope it marks the start of a change in your fortunes.
 
That all? I normally get one most years..... But then my work situation with various benefits in kind makes it a bit complicated....

Mostly it's below about £150 but one year I did get something like £700, which I spent on a nice new and lightweight bike because I was cycling to work most days
 
About time you had some good news Bob. Hope that kit's good one.
Pete
 
What Pete said. Good news. Well at least until you see the PE set for it :smiling5: :smiling5: :cool: :thumb2:
 
Cracking. Good to hear Bob. Never had a tax rebate myself :disappointed:
 
That's excellent news mate, but I must admit the centre page Ausf E would have been tempting as well;)
 
Funny, when I was in the military, I used to get a real sweet tax refund every year as you earned below the normal average. The other military benefits made up the difference though, so you could live good. Between $4000 and $6500 refund for the time I was married with 1 and then 2 kids.....Those were the days...........

I am very lucky to know Paul, who as a payroll expert, knows tax inside out, me not a clue.

The letter was just Martian to me? My tax code was wrong along with allowances not taken into consideration.

Got to arrange to meet him to force fed him a big breakfast!!
