so are you saying they only reason you don't have to register her is because she is your wife? and if I employed a part timer not related to me I would have to register

No you can employ a non family member aswell have a look on hmrc http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/payerti/getting-started/register.htm#1

As soon as you first employ someone, you will need to register as an employer with HMRC if any of the following is true:

you're paying them at or above the PAYE threshold
you're paying them at or above the National Insurance Lower Earnings Limit
the employee already has another job
they are receiving a state, company or occupational pension
you're providing them with employee benefits

still it is very open to abuse though, good to know :D

Does sound like it's open to abuse if that is the case.

It is open to abuse. But it is permitted. Being self employed is open to abuse and that's permitted too.

so on that basis, would the "employee who is not an employee" be classed as self employed and then have to do their tax return - or can you pay them the under £100 a week, show it as a legitmate expense yet have no receipt?? so what I mean is I could employ say "my mum" pay her under £100 a week, mark it as a cost on my accounts, yet she doesn't have to show a receipt ?
Never argue with an idiot, they will only bring you down to their level, and beat you with experience

there was a form to fill in with hmrc if you pay someone without the paye/ni  red tape. you do that when filling in your tax return . i forget what the form number is .. unless its changed now
