If that is possible it seems like the best solution.............then just see how things pan out..........

They can't be that bad given that they've turned their country into the most visited tourist destination in the world

IÂ´ll check with the accountant tomorrow.

After todayÂ´s meeting with my accountant itÂ´s confirmed that if you do purchases and pay in cash, get the correct invoice with yours and the sellerÂ´s details on it, it should be accepted as an official purchase done for the business. Once again it shows that even the authoritiesÂ´inforrmation they provide should get double checked!

I actually studied marketing in the Netherlands, but it would be interesting to take the course just to compare. I do think theyÂ´re well behind though.

I actually work in international marketing

I'm pleased Spain is not a society based so much on marketing and consumerism. Otherwise it would be the USA!

I've always found the best things in Spain are not advertised, you have to ask around and find them out, it that way they are exclusive and more special.

People who know about it tell their friends and family. Nothing better than personal recommendations.

This is one of the reasons why the Spanish economy is on the verge of collapse!!!

A property developer friend is owed 260,000 euro iva by the hacienda ,he had a meeting with them and they told him `off the record` not to persue it as they did not have the funds to refund him for at least 6 months!!!Very Scary
