Just done the gov "benefits calculator" - if I keep working for them we as a family would have an income of £70 a week more than being on being on benefits.... BUT I could be doing this again in 12 months time.....
So over the next year my redundancy would be £4750 and the additional £70 per week comes to £3640.....
Just crunched the numbers and if I opt to carry on working I would be doing so for about £12 per week still with the sword of Damocles hang over me.....
Ain't life fair

If you ever start taking things too seriously, just remember that we are talking monkeys on an organic spaceship flying through the universe.
