    New Garden maintenance business

    I would definitely start advertising on Facebook/Twitter as most people now use Social Media! In terms of pricing you could check what other people are charging in your area. You could charge by hour but you would need to estimate how long the job is going to take which is very hard in some cases.

    Looking for Bookkeeping / Accountant Software

    Your accountant will most likely have a partnership with a software provider, it would be worth asking. I would personally recommend Xero.

    Industry or practice for first job

    I would recommend going in to practice purely for the experience. You will gain more experience looking after various clients rather than working on the same company every day.

    HSBC Safeguarding - a new threat.

    I received a letter from HSBC stating my account would be closed within 2 months and I couldn't stop the process. I rang them and told me to fill in the safe guarding form online, which I have. I am waiting for their response now.

    Cost for Bookkeeper

    Sounds like a great deal. He is also doing more than just bookkeeping for you which is nice to have. I would definitely seek an Accountants advice at year end - they will be able to double check the records etc.

    Mortgage application

    This is right. They ask quite a few questions before agreeing to send them out. I ordered some last month and they both took 1 week to arrive, but they do say up to 2 weeks.

    Mortgage application

    Which mortgage lender are you using? They may want official HMRC copies of the SA302's - In that case you will need to ring up and request them.
