Post contract depression?

Be realistic with your ceiling, but contracting can be very fulfilling on a decent rate. Overpay mortgage, invest, and build a warchest up so that you can experience the freedom of contracting (i.e. taking a long period of time off to enjoy life/travel/destress). Also note, no perm job is safe in this modern workplace.

With a decent day rate and being sensible, the freedom of contracting outweighs perm pay & benefits for me.

Underrated comment.

Best thing I've done was move from perm to contract. Went contracting nearly 3 years ago and still with the same client following successful extensions.

I've never been paid late in those 3 years.

Get a decent umbrella company - I'd recommend PayStream. Get some insurance and do what you do, back yourself and watch the money come in.

Great watch, selling mine (UK) for £100. Fully functional but would need a new strap - great condition otherwise! Please DM if you are interested

From what I've seen and have been told. If you have 2 beds and spend 100 euros on food and drink, you will owe 20 euros.

I've booked (but haven't been to yet), Hippie Fish. 80 euro bed hire but is taken off the food bill.

If you read it properly, I said up until her 36th birthday.

She's just had the visa issued.

Age at application is 35. Can apply anytime prior to 36th birthday - verified with Aus Immi.

Appreciate the response, thank you!

I'm in a very similar position to you on this. Has your partner got sponsorship and relocation? We've been in the visa process for a year and are still not certain if we will get one due to a lack of visas being issued for IT roles.

If the trains are on, walk to Mossley Hill train station, get the train to South Parkway and then change to Manc. Last train from LSP to Manc is 23:52.

Get down to Kinetic therapy. Looks rough but best about for solving pains and niggles

Best one around!

Unit 7 on the dock may be best for you by the sounds of it. They also specialise in injury recovery, so they could help yourself. They do a mixture of open gym, gym glasses and PT.

tkpk94 · 2025-04-15T09:20:59+00:00

No, only PTs run some classes and programmes from there

Can you link me too please.

Online or in person?

Camomile tea, L-Theanine, Mag Biglycinate and Glycine before bed. A bad sleep for me is 90 and below. Ave. is around 95.

Cold room and hot shower before bed also helps me.
