Freelancers meet up notes for 22nd October 2025
Posted by Paul Silver
On the 22nd October, twelve freelancers got together in the Battle of Trafalgar in Brighton to talk all things self employment, tax and a fair amount of nonsense too. This is some of what we talked about:
- Would a crypto currency collapse actually make the economy drop?
- The AI industry finances are iffy at best
- Coworking spaces and costs
- David Lloyd coworking
- Calculating mis-calculated tax and having to take into account all base rate changes
- If you are ever in trouble over tax, over pay and then sort it out
- Calling yourself Undefined
- The time when Companies House accepted emoji in company name registrations
- The AWS outage
- Parent care and giving your parents a treat
- Bad wiring we have known and not loved / receiving electric shocks
- Restaurants in the Marina
- Pizza Hut closures
- Tax changes in Limited Partnerships
- Work levels are low but some projects might be picking up
