Default Can't work for a competitor for 6 months?

I resigned on Friday and in my exit letter, there was a paragraph which said, as per my contract, I'm not allowed to work for a competitor for 6 months.

I'm on gardening leave for a month but surely after that I'm not bound by the contract any more?

What happens if the only job you can do, is the one you do, like a plumber, or telephone engineer, what else could you do, other than work for a competitor!

Any one had this stipulation when they left a job?
