I would just add that 'starting a little business' as an easier alternative to working for someone else might seem like a good idea, but it certainly is not.  Many businesses fail in their first year and those that don't inevitably have people working all the hours God sends behind them. 

It's hard to make money, especially good money, or everyone would be doing it.  Sit a do a back-of-envelope business plan showing outgoings, incomings and sensible timings and you will quickly see what I mean.

Moving house + IVF + new business = disaster (not easier life).

If you chuck in the stress of a lender investigation and possible financial blacklisting...

I was thinking more of a small shop on Etsy, to mainly keep me busy and any extra cash it brings is a bonus.
We would not rely on this to keep us afloat! 
We are confident with our financial situation which I wasn't in need for advice about but thank you for your comment.
