Sitting in the office...opinions pls...
Thanks everyone. The contract has changed alot from when we took it on and got a response from the manager this morning implying that wfh would be fine as she'd previously agreed and that they'd delegated the extra work to someone employed to do it rather than asking us to do it.

Is my umbrella taking the Pi**
Having used brolly's before I'd recommend going with you're own Ltd company. Gives you alot more control and if you find a decent accountant then you can do well and still pay everything you should do. :smile- em:two
