    Hi,

    I usually take 3 months off each year to pursue my sport abroad, I have never usually had any problems getting a new contract when i get back, as a limited company i continue to have my salary paid into my personal account monthly.

    This year I plan on taking 6 months off due to this country becoming rather depressing, plus I need the break.

    I am leasing my house out for the duration I am away and have stock piled enough money for my return as a buffer before getting my next contract.

    VAT/PAYE is all done online by myself with help from my accountant.

    Plus I am taking my laptop and learning a new skillset while away to keep my skills sharp.

    Is there anything I need to watch out for or be aware of.

    Regards.

    Paul.
    Hmm 3 months to pursue a sport abroad....

    Don't fall off!
    Don't break a leg!
    Don't get caught in an avalanche!
    Don't fall in and drown!
    Don't forget to pull the rip cord!
    Golf's not a sport!
    Neither is snooker!
    Or Darts for that matter!


    Think that should cover you...
    B00med!
