The little woman is home safe and sound thank god. You'd want to have in the back of your head to mind um. A tough ordeal for her but she doesn't seem any the worse for wear after it.

Does she get to keep the 50c?
My nephew got €2 coin stuck in throat he was well pissed off when he woke up and coin was not to be found

Ya they handed it back to me in a jar with her name on it.
I wouldn't like to try swollowing a coin that size. I'd gag on a paracetamol.
Hopefully she's learned her lesson now anyway.

Asking on behalf of an neighbour...

They want to sell some suckler cows and calves. have passed their TB test recently, do they need to have a bruselosis test? Is that a done thing anymore?

No idea of the rules around cattle, so if anyone could help that'd be super...

Thanks...

No brucellosis test needed for selling anymore. Vet was telling me they had a hard time sourcing blood sample bottles to do my johnes herd testing as there's no demand for them anymore

there are lots of different types but ya they are the same spec. but they have an expiry date so vets aren't likely to keep a stock and the hospitals and doctors get priority on ordering

I was just doing a few online calf movements and I noticed that it is difficult to read the new tag numbers, the last digit is not clearly visible. The box isn't big enough to accommodate the extra three digits (372) iykwim. I'm using a laptop so it may have something to do with it but I never had this problem with the old tag numbers.

I'm still tagging with tags that I had got last year.
So its IE then 7 digit herd and county I'd the last 4 to I'd animal. e.g. IE 1234567-10123.
Are the new numbers much different?
Are we still allowed use the old ones if we have um?

Still allowed to use the old ones until they are gone afaik.
I just registered a few online last night and no problems. I have new tags at home that I haven't opened yet so don't know what they look like yet!

I thought that payment has to accompany a p35 return be it posted or online.

I am not sure but 24 hours notice is brutal. I havent been paying wages in a few years so wasnt aware this was due. They said form could go in tomorrow and payment at a later date

Deadline for posted returns is normally the 15th of Feb and for online the 23rd. Normally there are ads on the tv/radio reminding employers about it.
Is the account looking after the calculation of his wages - paye/prsi, usc etc

Yes they are supposed to look after everything. When I had employees a few years ago I would get alot more notice than this from the accountant
