Lord Fisher invited his hunting friends and relations to shoot pheasants on his estate each year, and required a "contribution" from those who accepted his invitations. It was held that he was not engaged in a "business" within the meaning of the Finance Act 1972. "[T]he true meaning of the word 'business' in the context of this Act excludes any activity which is no more than an activity for pleasure and social enjoyment."
