Here's one that hasn't been covered...
I am a shopkeeper, owner of a limited company, and I sell menswear. I am now claiming back the VAT on my CPL training because, in due course, my admittedly rather diverse business will be supplying my piloting services as well purveying gent's underpants. My accountant assures me that, provided I am genuinely going into commercial aviation, this is a runner. Anyone here disagree? [I'm hoping for a reassuring complete silence.]
Got a nice new summer stock here in Midhurst, if you're passing...
