you really need receipts sweetie

I'm not even sure that the less than £10 rule = no receipt needed still applies

ohhhhhh bummer lol, i've got a few reciepts, so will have to start from a couple of days ago,

What do I need to do about the 2 months i've not wrote things down for?

another question is before I got registered I got a fence for the garden to make it safer for the children (couldn't get out onto the street). I have still kept the reciept, can I claim this on the tax?

Only if you wouldn't have the fence if you weren't minding. Normally you can't claim anything to do with building work on the grounds that it 'add value' to your home. Sure someone on here will give you a more detailed explanation - just what I remember from tax workshops I've done.
