They can send you home and u get paid for your notice but i think if you start work straight away they can stop paying you, your still going to be employed by them for the 8 weeks notice period

If you are on gardening leave you have to be available for work each day you might normally have worked whilst you are being paid.
If they know what you are going to be doing, they may do this to sabotage your plans.
If they pay you off with pay in lieu of notice, your employment finishes when they pay you.
You can then work for yourself or anyone else immediately.
They only have to pay YOU 7 weeks if that's your notice period.
Wait for a week after the others, then put your notice in.

Cheers for the info mate, im fine going without pay for a week as they will owe me 11 days holiday when i go. The new depot wont be open until the 12th july so i dont mind having to work it or if they push me out the door thats also fine .
