Redundant again

[greenstiles]

Join the club, feels like me and my wife take turns ! still not as bad as when we were both made redundant. I might even get away with a tax rebate by the slim margin of of being £40 under :shock:

Keep busy , trust me. I spend 2 days a weeks volunteering / will be 3 soon plus through my volunteering i have managed to get on 13 free day courses relevant to said volunteering which will hopefully make me a better prospect for the line of work i wish to end up in............... my wife doesn't earn a lot and she's pregnant poor thing I feel guilty

Who says it's your fault that she's pregnant?
(sorry, couldn't resist.)

On a more serious note, being made redundant sucks. I'm fairly familiar with it, and now only have a part-time job.

Couple of hours searching and there's a few to apply for tomorrow, once I've 'adjusted' my CV.

Can't stop thinking about working for myself again tho... Few Ideas but nothing concrete as yet.. :?

I've just done a British Cycling Leader course and a Route Planning Course, leading a ride pays £30-45 and planning a route up to £60. You get some cycling clothes too.

Training courses were free, if any rides come your way it could be pocket money in any spare time.
