Ah, you're one of those. Take it you didn't go to Mountview, heh.
And my hair is as oily as hell anyway.

Regarding the banishment of spirit gum: we've always used nail polish remover for everything but eyebrows since that stuff in eyes would be hellishly bad. If it gets in hair, though, condition it as soon as you can or you might end up looking like the bride o' Frankenstein.

Yes that is nice. But, well you can't so easily deduct that from your taxes in the Netherlands. Whatever course/training you do and you think applies for your job/to make a living, you might be allowed to deduct it. That is what seems to be forgotten then or not passed along by the journalist. Our minister doesn't want to make a difference based on religion. Which is a good thing, imho, given the big variation of that over here.
As long if I can deduct my training how to duct tape a Noldo against the wall, I am fine with it

Yeah, Journalists tend to leave a lot of pertinent information. I imagine they published that just because it happened tobe halloween and they knew the story would create one kind of stir or another. And I also think it's a good thing that your minister doesn't want to differentiate on religion.
Hmmm... tax deductible training on how to duct tape your favorite elf to the wall... sounds good, where do I sign up? |

Thing is, if you were running a new age shop, or a wiccan shop or some sort of psychic reading service and weren't an incorporated business in the UK, you could deduct any training or supplies needed from our tax returns so long as they were wholly and exclusively for the purpose of the business. So technically you can get tax deductions for becoming a witch here too.
