    My tax number is x ID No y and I would like to know about the results after submitting my tax return, this is to check if I own SARS OR NOT.

    Thanks
    Own SARS? Talk about aiming high!

    I regret odds are against you now owning SARS. However you will have to contact SARS to find out - www.sars.gov.za

    Caller : Sir, we have...
    desA : Click...

    Dave other than replying "huh" I don't know.
    Here is my latest email received.
    Hi,

    I have a light design for a business card.
    Please can you quote me for prints?

    What details do you need?

    Thanks!
    Only stress when you can change the outcome!

    My last one now has a sequel. I crafted a reasonable reply, complete with links, to give her a nudge in the right direction. The email bounced - she gave an invalid email address

    Anyone heard the saying "No good deed will go unpunished"?
