Posts by Jen Atkinson, Krista McKinzey and Harriet Thew » 'tis the season afterall, the tax season that is and what more timely reminder of my need to get serious about proactivity in 2008 can I have than the looming deadline for tax returns. It has been interesting reflecting back on the financial year of April 2006 to 2007. With the distance of time I can look back quite proudly on what we achieved (obviously not financially - I'm talking to you Mr Hart Davis) but still we really did lay alot of the groundwork for what became a fairly successful 2007. It would most probably be prudent at this stage to look ahead and plan for what we would like 2008 to hold for us as a business but to be honest when you're wading through all your old accounts and bank statements it just leaves me feeling very nostalgic.
Anyway if you're like me and you run a small business and you haven't been terribly organised with your tax return and you're making regular trips from the inland revenue website to youtube for distraction enjoy this little celebration - of a new year and of creative ways to waste time - surely youtubes raison d'etre!
