I WILL get it in ..too poor and too mean to risk a fine and besides it is a surefire way of getting the revenue to be interested in your fiscal affairs for the rest of your days.. even so I am a bit prone to be sending it guaranteed next day delivery.... it is only cos I am scared of getting it wrong .. I have to say all the Revenue bods I have dealt with in recent years have been super helpful and friendly ..pity I was traumatised by earlier dealings.......

Oh I love deadlines ..that whooooooooooooooshing noise as they go rushing by is delightful... Actually it is a life time failing ...I wouldn't say I work best under pressure ... more don't work unless under pressure ..all my uni essays were handed in by the skin of my teeth and my dsisertation was completed on 3 weeks of 2-3 hrs sleep a night fuelled by rocket fuel coffee and (legal) herbal tranquilisers .... I really don't recommend it to anyone...it took 3 weeks before I stopped twitching ( even allowing for various other crises which you will have to get me hogwhimperingly drunk at Oxenmoot to find out about ).
