It's all part of a cunning plan to drag a respectable civil servant down to our own level of depravity.
Within months you'll be dreaming up schemes for rollover relief for Clarks and other tinplate whistles, deep discounting of the capital value of Overton low As and God knows what else.

Ain't it the truth? But I'm glad he missed the fireworks. It wasn't fun for anyone. But Taxman, it CAN be a really great place and we're glad you're here.

Anyway, I'm living in Brussels, Freund Dreher. Had a very good friend from Hanover years ago, but alas she is long dead. She had married an Irishman who was in the British army of occupation in the 1940s. She had a great sense of humour and we used to exchange multilingual puns to beat the band. Are you aware that the German uilleann pipers have an annual gathering somewhere between Hanover and Hamburg, and that they sometimes cater for other instruments? I've just lost most of my internet bookmarks, but if you're interested I could try to track down their website.
There once was a tax man from Britain
Who taxed every coat, tie, and mitten,
Tripped over a thistle
And started to whistle,
And with WhOA the poor publican was smitten.
Light spills into the hidden valley,
Illuminating the falls, paths, and
The breathtaking Elvish dwelling
Set back among great trees.
Lilting strains of Elven songs fill my heart;
I am finally home. ~Isilwen Elanessë
