This was purely a cash in hand to pay for what I spent on materials so no need to go through the company as there was no profit made, so no taxes or VAT are due. In fact I probably lost out when I consider the gas and electric used, but as I said earlier this was purely for experience.

I won't continue harping on about this because the admin side of things is so boring compared to your great achievement in cooking all that food. Well done!  BUT you are wrong. Even if no tax or VAT is due, a deal like that still has to be reported to HMRC. If it didn't go through your company, they'd deem you as working as a 'sole trader' - even more hassle, unfortunately.

Your right George, this is becoming boring  ;)

Thanks Emin,

The kitchen is actually quite clean, but I do have every window in the house open though...  ;D

Massive well done on this! Really good effort. ;D

The most I've ever cooked for is 4, so I imagine the enormous effort that would be required for 15. Most be really satisfying seeing the enjoyment on everyone's faces!

Thanks Ramirez, it was a lot of hard work but well worth it.

I started the marinading on Wednesday last week :)
