Early tax payment.

Thank you for the new thread. I will pick up my tax tomorrow.

Still here, still reading with appreciation.

Cat tax - not a care in the world.

Thanks @BIossomtoes! I need to go to bed but was very concerned about the imminence of the old thread’s demise!
Perdy cat has already gone to sleep in a messy pile of her own self.

Bit of blossom. I’ve been on the road a lot the past 10 days & I feel like I’ve missed a lot of spring. Hoping to remedy that this week.

Thank you for the new thread.
Flower tax as usual.

I thought that was multiple cats for a moment!

Paying tax with a picture of Mark Carney on whom I have a bit of a crush. With a cat.

She’s not the most sleek and groomed of beasts. I do comb her every day, I promise! Much like me she’s incapable of looking tidy and put together for more than 5 mins at a time…

She’s gorgeous. All that fluff!

Thank you for the Mark Carney pic, he fires my rockets too.

Thanks for the thread. One of my teens took this of our old girl and it just makes me smile. She does like to keep an eye on things.

An inordinate amount of that fluff ends up on the carpets and furniture @BIossomtoes. Most weeks I could make a new cat…

Thanks for the new thread. Have been absent for a while, as we were away, so double cat tax to make up for it.

Quadruple cat tax delivered. 🤣

And thanks for the new thread.

I love all the cats and miss mine so here's some saxifrage and sea thrift from my garden

It's a cockatiel tax from me

Thank you. Cat tax may follow.

Thanks for the new thread @BIossomtoes . No cat tax today, but a lovely bonsai tree I saw the other day at Kew Gardens.

Cross fingers we will all Mumsnet rightly on this thread. 🤞🤞

Thanks for new thread.

I’ll pay my tax with the Paralympic signs I took a picture of at Olympic park last week!

I will do my utmost to post rightly and bigly.

Sorry. I meant leftly and bigly.

Checking in. Thanks for the new thread. Some great photos. This week in Parliament. End of life bill moved to 16 May. Was supposed to be this Friday.

I’ve never seen blossom on a bonsai before, that’s delightful.

Thank you for the new thread Blossom & all contributors fabulous tax photos as ever flowers from me

Bridget Phillipson very clear on media rounds this morning on the SC ruling. BBC Radio 4 and Good Morning ITV. Hope that clarifies everything.

Moving on now.
