C, I've done it twice now, both 6 month breaks after volunteering for redundancy, no regrets and I'd even go so far as to say doing it altered everything for the better, I wouldn't have the job I have now, wouldn't have done half the things I have done. Think positvely on it and its an opportunity to do something for you, use the time, explore what you really want to do then make a decision, you'd have been at work if it hadn't happened so the times paid for its just what you do with it that makes the difference.....
