dont delay then.    be sure you tell any newbie they are on a 3 month trial period so you can get rid easy if they play you up. 

 before i took on workers i almost burned out tryin to catch up after a snowey winter on my own and i wished id took on erlier  but i wasnt sure if i had it in me .  download an employers pack on HMRC  is a good start
