incase of redundency is because the jobcentre has a 3 month wait for initial interviews and registrations for work/benefit. What is it like near you?

My local Jobcentre used to have signing appointments 5 minutes apart. The gaps must be shorter now because the place always looks crowded, the staff always look hassled and my signing time is 9.52am!

Also, not so long ago, the Ipswich local rag used to proudly display ads, on front page of its Wednesday edition, stating "48 pages of jobs inside today". Currently the jobs supplement is down to 4 pages, and most of that is made up of articles about training, etc, rather than any actual job adverts.
Hubby was made redundant 6 weeks ago and got an appoinment at the job centre for 3 days later. He has since found another job but not with their help.
I can only echo buenchico, my local paper used to regularly advertise 45 pages of jobs (birmingham) now its " loads of jobs" when you read it its all canvassing and training
I can't even manage a week's wages, let alone 3months.
chris is right in this area there is nothing when my husband was made redundant in september half the agencys were not signing any more as they had to many on their books already and there is no work here
where the hell do they think normal people find three months wages to put away
Hello Dotty. Mr Aprilis got made redundant last week :-(
He doesn't usually have a problem finding work but there's just nothing out there at the moment, especially in his field of work.

He did find a Construction Project Manager's job with the MOD the other day. �85k a year tax free, accomodation paid for.....in Afghanistan!!!

It's flipping scary how few jobs are available at present and I feel sorry for anyone who's been made redundant as a result of the current economic climate.
