    Thanks Maz & Bookie.

    I am currently emailing the recruitment agent who got me this job with an up to date CV;) Had a trawl of the net last night and there are loads of tax jobs about (especially in Aberdeen Maz!) I know I still need to take maternity leave and financially nothing has changed for the next 6 months or so which means I have a little bit of leeway to find a job in time for mortgage holiday finishing on 1 October.

    And if I'm not selected for redundancy who's to say I won't be looking anyway...

    Hope you've moved the basses! At least it's good that your HA are on the ball with stuff, hopefully it'll be sorted asap.

    I got on the scales today and I've lost 5lb since the end of last week!
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.
