Covid-19 - collateral damage

 Yes, for the days I have been technically unemployed. If it's good enough for the likes of Victoria Beckham and Richard Branson to claim from the government, it's good enough for me! Bit of a cheek of Richard as he doesn't even pay any tax at all.
 But 'not during the summer break' - for the past three years the first 5 weeks have been as holiday for which I received holiday pay, thus technically 'during employment'. After those 5 weeks, then yes, as my contract was for 'school days only'.
 Now I have no contract, job officially terminated. But I am entitled to my job back for 6 months if it re-starts.
 I was given a 'permanent contract' about 5 years ago (Aug 2015) and normally I would just slip back on the first day of school in August, but we are living in different circumstances with the effects of C-19 with all the drivers (around 400?) laid off when man would be working through Summer (normal routes/charter tours). There is probably work for me in August, drivers are hard to find out this way - and sober ones - every bus has an alcohol lock fitted.
 Have to dash now - cycling to harbour before the sun sets...
