I just finished an "everything I need to know for the audit elective" checklist. It's 4 bloody A4 pages long. And it's just like 1 line bullet points of things to check and stuff not to forget. Nightmare. How ya set?

Horror show on audit last year, put all my eggs into the core basket and failed that on frickin' tax. I was SO annoyed. I've done more work this year, but feel less prepared

Convenience is a big thing, and the fact that alot of people (including myself sometimes) dont chew their food properly. I tried it recently, boiled the chicken, blended with cold water, couldnt believe how "chickeney" it smelt and tasted. I know that sounds like an oxymoron, but more chicken taste then eating it normally.
