Going back to JSA, if you're claiming that and going on a three week holiday to Florida, won't you expect to see your holiday snaps in the Daily Mail?

In the past, it was perfectly allowable to have a UK holiday and no sign on for a few weeks. I guess the thought was if you're in the UK you can quit holiday to take up a job offer.
My expenditure is nothing to do with claiming JSA. Of course, its contribution-based JSA at this point in any case. Holiday been booked for some time so I won't get any money back anyway so pointless cancelling - (not that I was ever planning to!)
Yes, it is playing the system a little but, anyone who pays minimum salary and dividends is also doing so. If its legal then I see no issues.Rhyddid i lofnod psychocandy!!!!Comment

Selfishly, thinking I don't have an excuse now that I've got to get up early to drive to gig so will be back to full time night feeds I guess. :-(
Poor Mrs PC has been ill though - fortunately, a bit better now but this gig has been tough on a personal level.
In my mid 40s so don't think I've got the energy for more kids!
Few weeks off now then 3 week in Florida on holidays. Then try and get a new gig in October. Good news if I don't get something before New Year (well aware that if it gets into November then I ain't likely to get anything as we get closer to Xmas) then whilst not ideal I do have the warchest to cope with without too much grief. (especially if I claim JSA again!).
