Yeh. I'm sure one chicken burger did that to you.

I'm also sure it wasn't helped by the fact you smoke.

Oh I assumed he did it lifting a box of them.

Am I thinking of a different type of hernia?

Hiatus hernia is caused by a build up of stomach acids in the asophogus, and it damages the lining making it painful when food passes down.

Nothing to do with smoking, and I've actually cut down to 10 a day now, which I'm quite impressed with myself for.

I've got another visit to the docs tomorrow, for a check up on my recent health woes.

Speaking of which how is your HVS? Has the number of attacks lowered?

Yes, thank you. I don't get them as severe as I did, because I can recover quite quickly from them now with controlled breathing.

who advised you to register for vat? is this a new business?

that's an unnecessary expense - is your business really going to have a taxable turnover of £60,000 in the next month?

VAT registration numbers on the foot of any company documentation gives the purchaser a feeling of confidence when working with a sole trader. Especially when dealing with "talent", be it v/o, cabaret or other performance related work.

It may be an unneccessary expense in the actuality of the business, but it can help secure contracts.
