Beating

[Rake Aboot]

Anyone else’s season off to a bad start due to the tax man getting involved !

Bloody leaches.

In what way? Taxing your beating money? Or racing you paying the beaters?

Do you mean Rachel Reeves, Labour's new Chancellor, is less than keen on North of the Border cash-in-hand payments unless its to purchase a ferry ticket?

Yup
Favourite place is putting everything through the books. Makes it completely not worth it.

Been that way for some time

 

[sich1]

never had a problem claiming my tax back from the farm for all my beating.
have i been lucky ?

 

[Rake Aboot]

I don’t get tax back , it only ever goes one way
Having the extra income stream is too much hassle .

Yep, it's a few years now since this was clamped down on.

Been taxed for years, sadly all the grouse days were cancelled this year, may have to slum it on a pheasant shoot

Most decent estates will pay your tax for you and give you the total in your envelope

If you are too lazy to fill in a self assesment suck it up.

Which is how much? Started getting taxed last year on a big shoot I go to when they're short. £55 is the going rate. Glad I don't have to drive because a lot less than that lands in the bank.

 

[bullet chucker]

My payment is lost on driving, cos there are no shoots any nearer, simple?

BC.

A think Alnwick parks £100 minus tax so £80
But don’t quote me

 

[wytonpjs]

Boy…… our beaters get £20, a free pint and a pub lunch

 

[HallyButt]

Our beaters get fishing, pigeon shooting end of season day, food and drinks plus summer clay shoots and bbq, plus they get entered into a shoot day raffle where they can WIN cash PRIZES with one ticket per person and one per dog. They seem pretty happy, surprising how many people win..

From what I've heard, you're correct

Not bad if you're not already paying 40% tax.
