Did you know his name is actually a typo!

I feel that I must warn you that the commitee for the defence of the follically challenged is monitoring your communications and assembling a dossier on your activities.

thank you..I don't think Kin knows just how badly outnumbered he is Smiley

Interestingly (well not really but anyway), I was losing my hair at 18.  When I was in my early 20s I went out to live in Japan, and my hair actually grew back.  This was to the annoyance of my shiny-headed younger brother.

Your hair grew back in Japan?..Or was it just that loads of short people didn't point and laugh.

Seriously...I'm moving to Japan Smiley

It might have been the food?  Don't know really, but it definitely grew back whilst I was over there. 

Maybe you outgrew yours?

When I did tax exams the 10% rate applied to the first 10,000, not 1000.

It works out that if you earn around 18k a year or more then you are better off (in terms of income tax payments!) under the new system.

Thats capital gains tax threshold which is 0% for the first £10,000. But I had cocked my figures up (and incidentaly the last tax return I filed) I have corrected them above.

I meant the first 10,000 after the personal allowance. I stand to be corrected though, it was 12 months ago since I passed it, and in all seriousness, enough time for me to have erased it from my memory!!

Something like:

Old:
Personal allowance   X @ 0%
Next 10,000 @ 10%
Up to 38k ish @22%
Over 38k ish @40%

New:
Personal Allowance  X @ 0%
up to 38k ish @20%
Over 38k @ 40%

Probably made it 10K in your exams to make it easier to pass them?

Definitely £2230 @ 10% rest at 22% until 40% rate kicks in

the whole point of the 10p tax band for the first  £2000 was to help people on a low income, i thought it was a great idea, brown keeps talking about benifits and people being better off than they where, to me it goes against 1 of  labours basic policies on helping the low paid, he is making a big mistake i think.

im fully aware this will offend some but......

people who benefit most from this 10p band are less likely to vote. those earning more vote more often.

as for going against labour basic policy...where have you been for the last 15 years.
