Congratulations! Were there tears? Did Grim... wear a nice hat? Who ended up fighting in the car park? (I bet it was Zardoz.) Did the best man tell the guests the one about that night in Amsterdam with the three hookers? |

Yeah I agree, its a brilliant picture. I love how wedding pictures come across. Normally posed photos are obviously posed with forced smiles but wedding pictures never seem to suffer from that because everyone is so happy they are beaming all day

So, cupcakes eh? Life continues at a pace in the Trooper household. Today is day 1 of "Project Cupcake", Kate finished work on Friday, and starts everything in earnest today. Current plan is to start from home and see what happens, give it 6 months or so, put an initial float of £500-£1000 into a bank account and if at the end of 6 months that is gone, with nothing coming in, then she will go get a proper job If it is running well from home we'll look at options for shops etc...Current task list is hugely long, and involves fun tasks such as proper cleaning the flat from top to bottom, organising the kitchen, baking loads of cakes, perfecting icing techniques, setting up a websites, take loads of photos of cakes, setting up a business bank account, sorting out home insurance, buying ingredients, buying cake making "tools", getting vat registered, setting up a website, getting the word out on facebook and twitter etc... Blimey! Shame I had to go into work and get out the way... http://www.thecupcakehutch.co.uk Nothing there yet, but watch this space I trust we can count on you all to pimp the website, facebook group, twitter account etc... in return for a few free samples?

Do you need to register for VAT, as I would guess she's a fair way off hitting that at first I would guess? i'm a bit out of practice but i thought the sale threshold was about 70k? Also with the business bank account, if she definetly has to go with one, make sure it's one with 12-18 months 'free' transactional' banking otherwise she'll get rinsed for paying in cash (which i assume most of the sales will be). If she can't find one with this free element, i'd really recommed just doing it through a seperate personal account whilst in the testing period. |

She doesn't need to register for VAT straight away, but if we want to get the VAT back on any purchases then it has to be done, so might as well do it sooner than later. It'll be sole trader to start with, but a limited company as soon as possible for liability reasons etc... |

Decision made. We're going north. We'll give it twelve weeks, and if it looks like it is a pro move then we'll move proper. Thanks to people's help on Saturday, nice to have such good advice on hand. I'm shitting bricks, now. |

The next few weeks are going to be spent sorting things out, house hunting to rent in the area, hopefully for much cheapness, and sorting out admin stuff. It's going to be a huge change for me, so I'm hoping to get up there and sort some work out for me so I can hit the ground running. Then, if it is good, touch up MaliTowers and sell it ASAP. |

I was in Leeds at the weekend. Great night out, but it has changed a bit since I studied and worked there. Hummer limos cruise the city centre, offering to take the unwary to lap-dancing clubs and the like. Oh the hilarity as my friends insisted on telling them "he wants to go" whenever they stopped near us. I love Leeds, mind. |

I suggest you quote me as saying 'friendly locals, lively city centre, good beer, close to moors and gorgeous yorkshire stone' before 'something like 4 separate clubs touting for business', though. |

4 is a bad number for the total of strip bars, as given the rotation, you'll miss some girls as they'll be off having their periods and they might be hot. 3 is a good number, but you'll hit the same wall every 3 months, so I figure 5 is optimum. If my maths is correct. |
