Where Next? Modular or Integrated...

I expect the responses to this post may be fairly varied on this subject.

I have my JAA PPL, 63.6 logged hours and a night qualification, plus I am in my mid 30's...just setting the scene.

My options that lie before me, given that I am unable to commit full-time to any studies until this time next year due to work issues, are...

a) Spend the next 12 months saving money and hour building and then take up an integrated course to get my professional qualifications.

b) Same as above, but then go modular.

or

c) Start my ATPL's with Bristol GS now and by this time next year (hopefully) have all 14 out of the way and then look at possibly going with somebody like Professional Air Training to complete my IR and CPL, with maybe a short break to hour build inbetween.

What is the best option?

Plus to be ready to approach the airlines what other options would you recommend? Is there a route that may put me a better position when sitting down in an interview situation?

I know everybody has their own opinion on this, but I am keen to hear what everyone has to think so I can formulate my next step...

Thanks
