“In reply to your letter of the 12th, there is no documentary evidence of partnership, but when I called at my client’s premises to complete the Tax Return his wife was present. When I asked if the business belonged to him, his wife immediately answered in the most forthright terms that it was their joint property and I personally was sufficiently convinced not to pursue the matter further.
I take some pride in my physical condition, but I know my limitations. If you are still not convinced I will take you along in my car to see Mrs X with pleasure, but I will wait outside for you.”
Recorded in Peter Vaines and Roger Nuttall’s book “The Bottom Line“
