Let's see...

You know the answer already, but it isn't one you like and you want to hear a different answer. If I tell you the real answer (the one you already know) I will be accused of sarcasm.

So in order to answer you correctly (in your opinion) I need to tell you something wrong.

What do you want the answer to be?

I disagree. Your reply suggests that "4" is the correct answer, but the previous posters have indicated that other options are available. I think in this scenario it would be wise to consult an experienced attorney.

Default Re: I have to ask a question...

So I really do have a question... if every single question asked was answered by Google, yahoo (fill in the blank) what kind of forum would British Expats be? Yes that is a serious question. It would come down to nothing more than the cliques and snipes! I know we get annoyed by the 'Baz & Shaz, who went to Orlando and now want to know if they can move here' types, but really there would be little left if it were not for the questions and those commenting on the life experiences that most of us have had 50 times over. I think MOST people come here with genuine questions looking for actual experiences not just text book answers, I am pretty sure this member would be bidding you all farewell if all the postings where limited to the cliques and people who love to snipe and bitch... just sayin!

Still 4, unless you qualify for a waiver?

To paraphrase Douglas Adams;

There is another theory which states that this has already happened

Or you could consult a corporate accountant who will ask you:

"What would you like it to be?"
