    It's weird how these things happen, some years ago my husband was told that he could either take redundancy or buy the franchise on his area at a cost of £3,000 which we didn't have. The very next day he won £3,000 in a Daily Express competition. Fingers crosssed for you.

  • Sorry to hear about your husband. It might sound flippant but for many people (myself included) being made redundant actually turned out to be a very positive thing. Hope it works out ok.

    Thanks everyone for all the possitive notes! I personally think it may be a good thing too as the pay was rubbish anyway. At least now he can train for what he wants to do and I might be able to get back to uni too to finish my training! :)
    Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!
