Morning, everybody, welcome along to your free podcast for today.

It is Friday the 22nd of January.

Feel free to stand up and shout, Whoopee, because A, it's Friday, and B, it's the weekend, and C, you get paid on Monday.

Well, you do if you get paid monthly.

If you're a weekly payer,

it makes no difference. And don't forget, you have to pay your tax at the end of this month.

If you're a self-employed person, I was listening to Darren Adam talking about it earlier on,

and he's officially a self-employed person, so you need to pay your tax. If you don't have it,

contact the tax office and try and do some sort of deal with them.

I think they're fairly accommodating.

Well, I say I think they're fairly accommodating.

I'm too sure whether they are or not.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I have to wait and find out, weren't we?

I paid mine, so that's all that matters.

I paid it, and I've had a little bit of money left in the tax account, so we've got to now build up reserves again for the next tax bill coming at the end of July.

But at least we've got, you know, the end of, so January, February, March, April, June.

We've got six months to build up the money.

So that should be, I could just about sort it out, as long as I don't go mad this year.

Unless, of course, I'm going to win 79 million in the lottery tonight. Unlikely, ladies and gentlemen. But at least it doesn't matter.
