You need to make some friends. Feeling slightly superior wont keep you warm at night.

Supplying business services to a UK domiciled business (Ltd company) that is NOT required to be registerded for VAT in the UK, a Spanish supplier (that is registered for VAT in Spain and is charging Spanish VAT to it's UK customer) is claiming it needs it's UK customer's "GB" VAT registration number. It appears this is soley to enter on to it's own invoice in order to comply with it's regulations.

Your right, but I am safe, I always shop with the boss, so use the pick up point, but when she asks why I get out of the car and check my parking, (when I have to back into a back to back space), I tell there may be a member of the PH bad parking thread lurking in the bushes with a camera biggrin

The existing cooker is on it's own circuit with an isolater switch on the wall. I assume it's protection is the trip in the main fuse box.

What on earth is going on with this thread? I thought it was focusing on grammar or something similar but now all I see is random posts about Merc grilles and IT! confused

why does the word "sheep" not have a plural.

Look at that sheep - Implies you are going to look at a singular sheep
Look at those sheep - Implies you are going to be look at more than 1 sheep, Commonly known as a herd.
You would not say look at those sheep's as that would be ridiculous.

But then,
Look at the cow
Look at those cow's

Look at that duck
Look at those duck's

Look at that chicken
Look at those chicken's.

What is so special about sheep that the English language decided not to pluralize them?
