Sorry matey, couldn't resist it

I thought the UK tax system was complicated, but in comparison it looks like we don't do too bad when it comes corp tax, or at least compared to the US.

Here's an interesting article on how Amazon have managed to work the tax laws to their favour.

Some Friday good news for you

I do like using Chrome (version 9 still rather than buggy 10). My favourite feature of Google Chrome is the "new incognito window" which is an option if you click on the spanner icon at the top right of your browser.

It lets you do a nice clean cookie free search. Couple that with Hide My Ass and you can also do a nice US search if you want to check US serps, but have a non US IP.

abuse away!

never had a chance to use this one but now I have

What a great idea!

In my on and off gym membership moods, (currently back on!) staring at the screen is the only thing that stops you remembering how boring or knackering the bike or running machines are.

Current adverts I've seen tend to be fitness/food and drinks related, but can't see any reason why it wouldn't work for any other biz.

Adverts are same format as what your saying, visual with music played over the top, and they all seem to go for the cheesy obvious approach.

Image of a big bottle of water, then big letters, keeping your fluids up will make your work out 25% more effective, or something like that.

But it's all obvious, no need to think about it, the image and message is imprinted on your brain as the advert cycles during your 60 min session. So I'd go for blatantly obvious, and visually bright and positive. I think your ideas are great, put a link between the gym and your website.

Having a great work out? Lets hope your business is while your here! For the ultimate online presence call....

Looking good and feeling good? Why not give the same attention to your website?

Ok, so I'm not the most creative....

Be very interested to know how it works out for you, have thought of post office counter video advertising, but never a gym. Can't beat a captive audience!

That's more like the sad reality, the only real fix for a lot of people is too move away

Hi Laura, welcome aboard. The power of Google eh?

Got to be honest, it's very tempting...

Can see it now, us dressed up in My Local Forum shell suits and baseball caps... leaning against the front door looking miserable, them, with hands on hips looking angry.

Anyone else want to sponsor us? Maybe us standing round the new swimming pool Mark Pitts is about to donate...

Unfortunately it's all in the hands of solicitors, so I think we have reached a legal stalemate, which as long as they leave us alone, suits me fine

I doubt it Obviously a fan, and liked to copy your posts

Think it depends on the business.

Prob worth it if you are a sparky or a plumber.

Tried vehicle wrapping on Taxis a while ago, expensive and hard to monitor results.
