Given notice while on holidays

I am assuming everyone having these ideas of no hols for two years, taking it only on the bench etc are unmarried and have no kids?

Someone I worked with on one gig never took a holiday. Worked every weekend he could, and only ever took a break as TOIL rather than having a holiday.

He was an arse though, so I can understand that his wife and kids never wanted him at home.

A friend of mine did three years on one project, planned to take a big break, and then another role looked for him and he started straight away. That was 2 1/2 years ago. So, assuming you only take breaks between contracts, that would be at least six years between having a holiday. If that's what you want to do, then great, but it's not for me.

That's bonkers - must be addicted to invoicing?

Married? Kids? Holidays? Are you cut out to contract...
