This.

I can, I have wholesale accounts. Trademe looks cheaper though. My sell for that would be about $50 a stick for desktop Adata DDR2 2GB.

Unfortunately yes. With all the road works around the city, road closures etc for earthquake repairs as well as the fact the population has shifted massively all at once, our roads in certain directions are rather congested and can't cope with the demand. I miss not living on the south side, the drive to work was so easy.

That bypass is slower for me at those times of day than it is to weave around the city! I live near Redwood Aq.

As long as the expenses are legitimate then it's all good. I just have a business on the side of my day job. Made about $50k last year in revenue but with a bit of accounting, came out with a loss of about $100 I try to make sure all my purchases are under $500 + GST so I can expense them, even if they are assets. A lot of the expenses just boost up my equity in the business as they're reimbursements. Then I can legitimately spend the equity I have to reduce it down each month. Means no income tax There are grey areas of expenses that are still legal. E.g. if you go on a trip away, go visit a customer or something then claim half of the travel expenses as a business expense. If you're GST registered, make sure you get GST receipts for that stuff. If you work from home, you can claim a percentage of your floor area used for business purposes. So if you use 10% of your house, you can claim 10% of your rent / mortgage (GST exempt) and 10% of your phone, 10% of internet etc. If you are an internet based business, you could legitimately claim more of your internet costs ... say 50%.

Unless I've been doing it wrong, you don't actually get a refund if you make a loss. I made a loss this financial year just been with my business but as far as I know it is just a tax credit on future years tax. The only refunds I get are on GST. If you are registered for GST and spend more on items with GST receipts / invoices etc than you do selling things, then IRD will pay you the difference back. Things like rent at home are GST exempt though, but you can claim it on power, phone, internet.

I have been moving things around to help with this issue. Unfortunately, the development sites need to stay there for now as they use things from the main site. These are only being used for reference now so the impact should be less. The latest development work is being done on a different server. Fingers crossed it isn't much of a problem until we're done.

What an awesome effort by McCullum. :dnc1: :happy1: :happy2: :nilly: Can't forget Neesham too. On debut, batting at #8, gets a century.

If you're that worried, one of the first things you should do is not use google for searching or use chrome as your browser. They don't even need cookies. Generally cookies are pretty safe, they typically are only used to keep you logged in to sites. Once you're logged in, you can be tracked without storing any data on your computer. Ad blocking is a more effective method as some of the ad networks store cookies on your computer which then can track you across multiple sites etc. Having good ad blocking should prevent this from happening. If you're super paranoid, you'll need to run each site in private windows (most browsers have a method to do this). Even then, google can still track you using their analytics. Probably best to block that too.

All good. We have a campervan, so bed is with the vehicle. Hoping to make it back to work on Monday, so depends if I can get some sleep on the ferry crossing. Otherwise, will just park up on the side of the road and sleep until early morning. Thanks again.

We'll be arriving in Picton at 11:10PM ... But cheers for the offer.

I'm driving Auckland to Christchurch on the 2nd March. Planning on looking at fish while I'm there too.

Save yourself and don't watch Dexter. The writers really didn't care at all. It has to be one of the worst endings in history.

I think it is the Aqua One as a base unit, but he modifies them quite a bit.
