Second Edition 2024
This book explains why the UK tax year begins on 6 April and traces the history of the old tax year which ran from 25 March. It also covers other aspects of calendar history and related issues, including the continuing application of the 1750 British calendar reform statute to the USA and elsewhere.

The move from the Julian to the Gregorian calendar in 1752 resulted in the omission of 11 days from September 1752. The omitted days were later added to the tax year and that apparently meant a new tax year beginning on 5 April - not 6 April. There are various explanations for the addition of a further day so the year began on 6 April, including the suggestion that a day was added in 1800.

In fact the old tax year ran ÒfromÓ 25 March and an ancient legal rule said ÒfromÓ meant the year began on the following day, 26 March. Hence adding 11 days to 26 March produced a new tax year beginning on 6 April.

It is often said that the Treasury extended the tax year by 11 days to avoid losing money. This is untrue.

The Second Edition revises and expands particularly the key explanation on the way the tax year changed.

The eBook from Lulu.com may help reading some of the Appendices which are in colour.

Heavy duty
I bought these to modify a safe. Very durable I had to cut down a corner and a sawszall had trouble getting through. On top of that they hold a lot of weight without buckling. Buy it.

Great construction but poor mounting hardware
They are great once your put them in but mounting them was a huge pain. The included dry wall anchors are of really bad quality and rips up a huge opening if you have to undo them for whatever reason. But the more infuriating thing is the screws they come with, which is not quite Philips 2 and easily slips from most standard driver bits. It is very easy to strip these if you are not careful. The small amount of space at the corner almost doesn't allow for easy drill access so you might have to get creative. Overall good product, but I will highly recommend buying your own set of wall anchors and screws

Sturdy as heck But NOT easy to install
Because of the angles to install the screws, I'm definitely going to have to say NOT easy to install. Simple in concept; maybe if you have paper-thin walls. But if you don't it is a pain to screw those in with the tools provided. On the upside, they do come with a mini leveler. But it's just not a practical way of screwing in the shelf unless you are prepared to spend a surprising amount of time doing it. The shelves themselves are sturdy but that should be expected since it's basically a sheet of metal.
