    Consultancy Work Question

    As I have previously said, I am not currently self-employed and so don't handle my tax returns as my employer does it for me. Are you suggesting that I can submit an additional return for this consultancy work? Knickers in a twist? Just wanted to do things legally and correctly!

    Consultancy Work Question

    Hamilton forbes or Barrington House Publishing - scam maybe?

    I believe that I had a call from HF about ten months ago, shortly after being added to yell.com. If my memory serves me well, then I believe they were asking me to take out an advert in a calender for a childrens charity. After speaking to them a few times, I thought it all sounded a bit fishy...
