Yes good point... there is a temptation to think that vat has always been there - one forgets it is a relatively recent invention! ;-)
The message from John Rumm contains these words:
IIRC we were lumbered with vat a bit earlier, perhaps 1972 or 73. Part of the price for joining the Common Market and conforming to their strange practices.
A quick google suggests 1972 and the further information that vat was invented by a Frenchman in 1954.
