Things I like to hear from my accountant!

"You need to declare your chinese income but it is not taxed here, you only pay tax on the income you earn from Australian sources."

Which would be ... not very much for 07-08, and will be absolutely nothing for 08-09.

I've asked if I can claim the expenses involved with moving over here as a deduction. We shall see how that goes :)

"You going to train trapeze on that diet, fat boy?"

Yes. Yes I am. Today I had a session with the head coach - I learned how to hang (yeah, that's harder than it sounds), I learned how to lift my legs up, I learned how to hang on one arm! Now I must practice that for a few weeks.

And now I am limping. Because when I went to put the trapeze away, I stubbed my toe. Split the nail all the way down the centre, pissing blood. It's not even a cool trapeze related injury. It's just stupid.

Still. I don't need my toe for trapeze!
