Saturn 5

Sorry for going on, but what a great day for cycling.

Nice new ones at Burgess Park.

I don't care what we are being called, I feel proud to be British.

Superb gold for Pendleton.

Sorry if it's already been said, great day for cycling.

Holy crap! A gold medal for GB and they have beaten the world record in the men's team pursuit. Amazing cycling.

Another cyclist killed a couple of days ago, this time by an olympic shuttle bus. The government don't care.

Gutted for Vicky and Jess today, can't believe they have been disqualified.

I'd like to recommend Balfe Bikes for their help and knowledge today. They did a great job on my Trek Mountain Bike.

If you want London to be more like Holland then please sign the petition to the mayoral candidates.

F**king hell, a pretty lightweight sentence. Bus driver must have lost his temper.

Wouter Weylandt has been killed following a crash during the Giro d'Italia. More here.

Sorry for not responding straight away, but I haven't logged onto the forum for a couple of days now. I'd like to thank you all for your very interesting responses. If I may, I'd like to go away and read/absorb this information and return with any questions. Sorry, but I've been extremely busy at work. Once again, many thanks for all your tips and help. Much appreciated. I'll get back to you soon.

I have recently started contracting in the IT industry. I'd like to start my own limited company to save on tax. I've looked at Companies House web-site and scratched my head. I'm very busy working so don't have a lot of time to research this. Are there any good companies out there that, for a reasonable price, will set up a company etc. etc. for you? Also, do you have to have an accountant, and, if you have an accountant, do they only charge you when you are in a contract? I am currently going through an umbrella company, but I get the feeling that I could keep more of my salary by forming a limited company. Any advice would be appreciated especially from someone who has been through this recently.

It's a miracle no one was killed. Another link.

...arms dealer?

Thank you for the welcoming witticisms. Regards, Saturn 5.

Seeing all these wonderful pictures of snowmen, I wondered if anyone's had their snowman nicked? If so, have you reported it to the police?

This is my first post and I'd like to say hello everyone. I've arrived.B)
