I'm not sure what that is. We have sales tax when we shop. We don't get that back.

It's a sales tax. The gubbmint put 17.5% on just about everything apart from, err, food, and children's shoes. Prices are *always* quoted inclusive of VAT, except by computer manufacturers who will splash £449 in bold type and have £527.58 in small type underneath.

Which happens to be the price of a new 800MHz / 6GB / 192 MB slaptop from Higrade. Incredible, innit?

The Beeb never ever publish my comments.

And anyway, the ones already there are too stupid to be associated with.
