A string of \u2018thank-you\u2019 emails and cards showed that our guests really had a great night at the 2013 Taxation Awards. \u00a0It was the best one yet!<\/span><\/p>\n

The familiar Voice of the Balls\u00a0<\/i>(aka Alan Dedicoat) took us through the proceedings with his well-honed articulation.\u00a0 Comedian Tim Vine also acted as joint compere and presented the awards.\u00a0 He had our table in stiches, firing off his witty one-liners with effortless rapidity\u2026 \u201cSo I was getting into my car, and this bloke says to me “Can you give me a lift?” I said, “Sure, you look great, the world’s your oyster, go for it\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

The boy with the tape on his mouth also gave us a very clever and novel act as a break between the two halves of the awards ceremony.<\/span><\/p>\n

Our table lapped it all up together with the tasty four-course dinner. As hosts we took great pleasure in seeing all the guests getting on so well with each other \u2013 no surprise really since they were all such lovely warm people!<\/span><\/p>\n

We were proud to sponsor \u2018Best tax practice in a regional firm\u2019 and Patricia presented the award to \u2018Bishop Fleming\u2019, which mainly operates in the south west of England. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Our firm again made the shortlist for the ‘Best Tax Consultancy Team’ but alas we had to be content again to be a ‘runner up’. \u00a0With three consecutive short listings, we are beginning to feel like a fiscal version of Kate Winslett!<\/span><\/p>\n
