One of the great benefits of being a tax lecturer is I have the opportunity to travel.
I love tracing the steps of my childhood hero, Tintin.
Tintin is an intrepid reporter/ detective who travels the world solving mysteries and as a little boy, I dreamt of doing the same.
I have now decided to document some of my adventures in parallel with Tintin’s adventures.
Tintin loved travelling by hot-air balloon, and I have always wondered why these are not more common. I soon realised why -hot air balloons are at the mercy of the wind and do not travel in a straight line. Balloons also now have a trained pilot who controls the height the balloon flies at.
However, the air in the balloon is heated by igniting a mixture of liquid propane and oxygen which can be very noisy and a little scary!
It is a very relaxing surreal experience to drift through the sky carried by the wind although the use of winds.
Fire and wind!
If you are planning on doing Taxation or Advanced Tax in December 2022, I recommend you purchase Tax Condensed or Advanced Tax Condensed which will allow you to learn the technical rules If you then practice the key questions I recommend, you too will be ready for anything the examiner throws at you.
These books will really make a difference. You can purchase them using the links below:
