I have considered it. I am going to contact them, to make sure it wont affect my AAT practice licence, where offering a tax service is concerned. Shame you are in Bristol.. A study partner might have made it seem a bit more appealing!
I'd also just like to have the books as a back up anyway, because if they are up to date, they are perfect for learning how to approach a matter that isn't on the everyday agenda! They refresh my memory much quicker than trying to read HMRC's website!
