    Thanks guys, Scaredy, yes I buy drinks, and I'd eat there as well if I could get there!

    Claire, do you have a problem being on benefits and doing the jewellery? I'm thinking about having an online second hand book business to start with but I'm really worried how it'll be seen by benefits/tax credits. If it was an actual physical shop then I'd be able to switch from disability benefits to tax credits, but if it's run from home then how do I prove how many hours I've done and stuff.
