Do I still get my 10% cut for motivating you to do it?

At this point you’d incur significant income tax admin on what I’d have to pay you.

(Just found out a hotel charged me twice for the same trip last month. Don’t care, got receipts, claiming it back twice)

Any guesses what I spent €6.50 on in a 4 star hotel in The Hague at 16.52 local time? Don’t think it was a beer. It’s not enough for their food.

#68

Did you stay there? City tax?

#69

I did. No, that’s invoiced separately.

Did I pay for one fifth of a hand job?

#70

If you did, I’m not sure it’s something you should try putting through expenses.

(It’s probably a coffee or cake or something)

#71

This would also explain the Happy Meat charge.

I looked this one up earlier - they’re a restaurant company. Dull facts.

You’re better at this than me.

Why did I take a train from work to London at 13.10 on 31st May? This isn’t a riddle, I have literally no memory of this.

You were going to see !!! or Haim that evening?

Bought a multi-pack of Donnay socks on the Sports Direct website. Wore a pair, they felt a bit…short (i like a sports sock to come midway up to the knee during winter, you know what i’m saying?), washed them, folded them back up, buried them in with the other seven pairs, bunged them in the outgoing mail at work, £4.99 back in my bank before the end of the next working day, so y’know, fair play to 'em. They might run their warehouses like Russian prisons and effectively pay below the minimum wage, but that customer service can’t be faulted, so maybe you’ve just got to take the rough with the smooth sometimes.

I’ve only ever used sports direct once online to buy some running trainers.

5 quid to get them to deliver to store, but they give you a £5 voucher for using this method

what sort of cuntery is this?

I have gone significantly out of my way to recover incredibly small amounts of money.

I basically don’t value my time at all and am incredibly thrifty when it comes to everything other than alcohol it would seem.

one of my friends sisters worked for sports direct and was one of the lucky ones on a full time, permanent contract.

few years back she got 50k from them, then six months later another 12 grand. some sort of bonus or something

I have no further sports direct stories unfortunately
