Road Tax, B4 Stonleigh

[dogwood]

I know I can find out when I get back to the UK...but

As Stonleigh is on the 1st to 3rd May,
I don't really want to tax it for April.
I'm trailering it back coz it's a bit of a distance for the first run (550miles)

So can I get it taxed on Friday the 30th April, to commence the 1st May?
I got to go to the DVLA to get it done coz it's been on a SORN since Oct last year,
and online says I need an MOT


Cheers
