If you can afford it defo do it. I took a month but I only work 12 days a month so it was great even after that was over.
We have a holiday booked to Rhodes at the end of August. Currently holidays are cancelled until 10th July with First Choice who we are booked with. Does anyone know whether it’s likely we’ll be going?

I'm pretty lucky in that my work will give me 9 months off and I plan to use the bulk of that when my wife goes back. Hopefully I have a family member who can help with child care as well but it's not guaranteed.
There were 7 notes of interest in this property and my offer will be subject to selling my flat, so a good chance we wont get it anyway. If we do miss it, it's not the end of the world.
Whereabouts you buying in Edinburgh?

has anyone made a horizontal career move out of marketing/communications?
i do really enjoy my current job but i'm not sure it's a field i want to work in my whole life, and wondering what transitions are easier than others.
unfortunately I don't have hyper specific goals for my future career, beyond a greater salary, greater responsibility, and hopefully something high-skill rather than management based.
been eye-ing up civil service roles, as a fair few entry-mid level job ads claim that no specific experience is necessarily required.

Some friends have just moved to a (rented) house there. Seems nice and quiet. They've not had a run-in with the Young Niddrie Terror yet.

Launched 50+ Wordpress websites with a fair chunk of them using Woocommerce. What is it you’re looking for?
