Best of luck Steve. Self employment isn't always its cracked up to be. Im testament to that being off for 6 weeks with no income. Just as well I have money to live on. Being employed means sick pay, holiday pay and no bloody paperwork!

Your entitled to income support, but it'll take more than a week to claim it.

Well done mate.

How long where you self employed for?

 

[PlumbBobBob]

Well done Steve. It's getting harder for all of us to make a decent living doing this stuff. Good luck.

Colin if your class 2's are up to date you should be claiming ESA. You are entitled to it so take it.
