Hacks & Tutorials

Is this level of cleanliness a little over the top? Maybe. Are we here to judge? Hell no! For many contractors, their vans make up such a huge part of their livelihoods, transporting not only contractors themselves to and from jobs, but their valuable tools as well.So it feels only right that we should compile this list of easy van cleaning hacks for the contractor who wishes to treat his or her motor-mistress in a way that befits her station!Dusters at the ready. &nbsp;<ol><li>Keep a storage box as a bin for your rubbish. There’s only so much Maccies and Greggs rubbish a van can take. Save your steely-steed from despair by keeping a small to medium sized sealable container around to stash your rubbish in. Take it one step further and have one for recycling and another for general waste to reach eco-hero status. &nbsp;</li><li>Line your cupholders. You’ll thank us and yourselves later for this one. Contractors who love a bit of baking, repurpose those fairy cake paper cases to line your cupholders, otherwise a bit of bloody kitchen roll will do just as well. The next time you catch a glimpse of the crumb-pocalypse happening in the bottom of your cup holder, you can throw the lining out to reveal a sparkling surface cleaner than Mother Teresa’s conscience. Remember to put one back in though! &nbsp;</li><li>Use a (clean) toilet plunger to sort out any superficial dents. If it’s a write-off, this hack probably isn’t going to help you. For those small annoying dents though, you may as well try this nifty plunger hack before sending it to the body shop.&nbsp; &nbsp;</li><li>Keep a small, easy-access cleaning kit in your van like the domestic gods and goddesses we know you are! Small paint brushes and sponges are great for spot cleaning dusty bits like the vents, and to save some space, decant some glass cleaner into a travel-sized spray bottle so you can quickly remove Darren’s grubby finger marks off the windows. It goes without saying you’ll need a cloth as well. Oh and don’t forget anti-bac wipes: they’re essential for cleaning emergencies and for finishing up the job once dirty Darren’s vacated the vehicle. &nbsp;</li><li>Get in those gammy crevices using your anti-bac wipes wrapped around a screw. A primitive solution, we know, but if it works, it works! We can see it now: you glance down, noticing it for the first time. A build-up of grime made up of lord-only-knows-what in the groove in the door. You can’t stop thinking about it. You’re now breaking out into a sweat, itching to get at it. Stress not my friend! We know for a fact you’ll have at least one screw in one of your pockets. If not, check on the floor, there’s likely one there. Remember your emergency anti-bac wipes? Fish one out, wrap it round the screw, scrape out the sinful-scum from the groove in the door and rest easy pal.</li></ol>&nbsp;Is your van your pride and joy? Maybe it is, but it’s still a tip. We can feel a competition coming on - the UK’s most mingin’ van. Hold that thought.You know where you won’t find a tip though? In<a href="http://pppn.co.uk/"> PPPN</a>’s quality selection of contractor-specific accommodation. Hit them up before your next job to make easy work of booking your digs!

Eargasm Pending: Top 6 Podcasts You’re Missing Out On

With 2021 fast approaching, it’s probably fair to say that 2020 as a whole has been pretty sh*t for most of us. And yet, there has always been one guiding light at the end of the tunnel, one small crumb of comfort to cling onto. Good old British humour.Yes, as we celebrate dodging an awkward Christmas with the in-laws thanks to lockdown, and commiserate having to watch endless repeats of Home Alone 2: Lost in New York, it’s time to take a look back at the year in really the only appropriate format: by the medium of meme, we hereby summarise the sh*t storm of 2020...&nbsp;<h3>January</h3><figure class="image"><img src="https://pppn.co.uk/3rdly/storage/app/files/text-editor/1609073789Meme 1.jpg"></figure>&nbsp;A pretty standard January in the UK. Wet, cold and windy. The Royal freeloaders Prince Harry and Megan publicly announced they were stepping down. That wasn’t the only big departure: we officially announced we’d leave the EU. Brexit: Season 2 now on Netflix.&nbsp;Around the world, Australia was ravaged by bushfires. Donnie T decided to try and wage war with Iran via drone strikes. Basketball legend Kobe Bryant died in a helicopter crash.&nbsp;Oh, and the World Health Organisation were officially informed of a new virus coming out of China, 2019-nCoV - what we all now know as love as Coronavirus.&nbsp;<h3>February</h3>&nbsp;<figure class="image"><img src="https://pppn.co.uk/3rdly/storage/app/files/text-editor/16090738875797f701d910b8e6c57d1c8b718f151d71a30f3bb40f711c0e2b0c310f34850f_1.jpg"></figure>&nbsp;David Fart’s back in the headlines again, surprise surprise. This time, he’s acquitted on his articles of impeachment. By the Republican-controlled senate. Who’d have thunk it.The WHO - no, not Roger Daltrey’s one - officially calls that pesky virus COVID-19. Wonder if we’ll hear anymore about that…Otherwise, February was pretty quiet, or as better described - the calm before the storm.&nbsp;&nbsp;<h3>March</h3><figure class="image"><img src="https://pppn.co.uk/3rdly/storage/app/files/text-editor/1609074040someones-watching-quick-look-busy-mematic-net-20-construction-memes-that-49253173.png"></figure>So, that virus? Plague is once again sweeping through Europe. Italy - locked down. France - locked down. Spain - locked down.&nbsp;Hey, remember the Olympics? Lol, not anymore you don’t. Cancelled. Premier League football? Good one. Pretty much any kind of group activity or outdoor activity? Nu-uh. Get inside.&nbsp;Lockdown begins and we all start to go mad. Everyone Googles the word ‘furlough’ and finds out that Zoom is not some b-movie superhero flick.&nbsp;<h3>April</h3><figure class="image"><img src="https://pppn.co.uk/3rdly/storage/app/files/text-editor/16090741330e0f3cc44237fc1c81912588bf6865ca.jpg"></figure>&nbsp;A dark day for contractors indeed, we’re told we can’t go outside and work on site. If you can work from home though, well that’s totally fine. If you get the plague, just rub an onion poultice on your nether-regions and hop on one foot. That’s how it works right?&nbsp;We’re all still in lockdown as Easter passes and the shortage of eggs means we can’t even stuff our face with cheap leftovers for the weeks to come.&nbsp;<h3>May</h3><figure class="image"><img src="https://pppn.co.uk/3rdly/storage/app/files/text-editor/1609074199Retention.jpg"></figure>&nbsp;So, about those projects you were mid-way through. Turns out you aren’t getting for them. Somewhere, the sound of a tin can being kicked down the road is faintly heard as furlough is extended again.Everyone has high anxiety. England has the highest death toll in Europe from that virus. But hey, we’ve got a new catchy buzzword-filled slogan to parrot out on television! Dominic Cummings tries and fails to defend being a c*ckwomble. Although this could apply every single month really.&nbsp;Big protests in the USA and actually the world over in response to the murder of George Floyd.The heroic Captain Tom Moore is recommended to be knighted for his NHS Fundraising efforts.&nbsp;<h3>June</h3><figure class="image"><img src="https://pppn.co.uk/3rdly/storage/app/files/text-editor/1609074258b2954c76320047d5be1fbc8d00ce7e1b.jpg"></figure>&nbsp;Bizarrely, everyone has now taken up DIY as their favourite hobby. Or rather, the only hobby besides walking around the local park. Some brave souls took up running at the start of lockdown promising to use it as a ‘way to get fit’. They’re currently rejoicing over the fact that Deliveroo is still in operation.&nbsp;Non-essential retail opens again, as does public transport. Everyone has to wear masks, but not cool ones. Rather than the Bane, they look more like wannabe cowboy bandanas. Yee-haw.&nbsp;We’ve gone from 2 metre distance to 1 metre distance too. Progress indeed! Oh, and schools re-open, so little sproggs are finally out the house again! Huzzah!&nbsp;<h3>July</h3>&nbsp;<figure class="image"><img src="https://pppn.co.uk/3rdly/storage/app/files/text-editor/160907430438f4225d3ed164b2f9b4c61b4a022857.jpg"></figure>&nbsp;We’re back on site! And there is an announcement that Oxford University - those clever bods - are working on a vaccine.It’s hot. 37.8 degrees in London and so everyone flocks to the beach, a sensible decision in the middle of the pandemic. Can’t see any issues there.People slowly start trickling back to work and reflect on their 3 months of furlough binge-watching Tiger King.&nbsp;<h3>August</h3><figure class="image"><img src="https://pppn.co.uk/3rdly/storage/app/files/text-editor/16090744070d257dfac745cc2b52b6a571f6b7a24c.jpg"></figure>&nbsp;Sites are back to being productive! You get such genius innovation as above from the new people who’ve decided to become a contractor after being made redundant. Welcome aboard!There's a new leader for the Liberal Democrats - the party last relevant about 10 years ago. Education is a f*cking shambles with exam results and we’re all moaning about warm weather. The UK is healing.&nbsp;<h3>September</h3>&nbsp;<figure class="image"><img src="https://pppn.co.uk/3rdly/storage/app/files/text-editor/1609074580508db30049a6b33204ea80858e95066a.jpg"></figure>&nbsp;The R number has gone up again. Turns out, a bunch of us all returning to work together and going off to the beach together may not have actually been very smart-smart at all.&nbsp;There’s new buzzwords too. Rule of 6. COVID Tier Threat Level. WFH is back on the agenda again, meaning contractors have to face up to the reality of actually organising things properly.&nbsp;And after a brief hiatus, Brexit: Season 2 returns with a bang.&nbsp;&nbsp;October<figure class="image"><img src="https://pppn.co.uk/3rdly/storage/app/files/text-editor/16090746407839e5ec039f940899d8bdb7b61f660c.jpg"></figure>&nbsp;It’s spooky season. 1 million people a week are estimated to have COVID-19. Happy Halloween.&nbsp;BoJo the Clown does another televised address to the Nation and you guessed it - we’re back in lockdown!Special mention to Lewis Hamilton for matching Michael Schumacher’s Formula 1 record. It’s amazing what you can achieve when your car is so much better than everyone else’s.&nbsp;&nbsp;<h3>November</h3><figure class="image"><img src="https://pppn.co.uk/3rdly/storage/app/files/text-editor/1609074687thumb_i-prefer-independent-contractor-imgflip-com-dr-evil-laser-meme-53194576.png"></figure>&nbsp;Our friends in the US become briefly relevant again as cheeky wotsit Danny Gass-Pass is voted out in favour of a man who is closer to White Suit than White House. And we thought our elections were bad (they still are).The COVID vaccine scientists announce a breakthrough - winner! But it needs to be kept at temperatures colder than your ex.&nbsp;And stupidly, plans for Christmas bubbles are announced.&nbsp;<h3>December</h3>&nbsp;<figure class="image"><img src="https://pppn.co.uk/3rdly/storage/app/files/text-editor/1609074732i-dont-know-5b79c0.jpg"></figure>&nbsp;We only have one thing to say really: tier 4. Merry bloody Christmas! Remember all those Christmas plans you made? Lol, good one.&nbsp;What will 2021 hold for us? Given the current year, an awful lot more nonsense we expect, including another lockdown, light at the end of the tunnel in the way of a vaccine, and more Brexit chaos.&nbsp;Some things are certain, though - we'll get through it together, things will change for the better, and Darren still won’t be doing any work,&nbsp;From everyone at The Contractor, have a fantastic Christmas and New Year and remember, Stay Awake, Protect your Pigs in Blankets and Eat Mince Pies.

2020 as Told in Memes

Just when life feels like it’s finally getting back to normal and you’re regaining some control, you catch yourself humming along to George Michael in Tesco (rest in power my man) and audibly curse as you realise Christmas has only gone and snuck up on you for the 1091985th year in a row - although you can blame it on 2020 this year.We at The Contractor suffered the same fate (it was Mariah Carey and we were in Asda though), so after we finished up our nervous poo, we thought we’d put our heads together and come up with a fail-safe gift guide for the masses to get the gifting element of Christmas ticked off and put behind us for another 365 days.We can do this - Merry Christmas you filthy animals!&nbsp;1 - <a href="https://firebox.com/ ">Firebox</a>Our personal favourite when it comes to gifting at any time of year, you can find weird and wonderful stocking fillers and presents-to-impress alike at Firebox.

Christmas? Again?! - 5 Online Shops and 25 Gift Ideas for Fail-Safe Gifting

Contractors, stop right there! Yes, you! You’re not going to want to leave for your next contract without reading this first!

When it comes to traveling and being away from home, you can either do it the easy way or the hard way. Here at The Contractor, we’re all about doing things the easy way, so we’ve put together a list of 7 handy tips and tricks all contractors should know:  

Make like a spy and browse incognito Turn on private browsing if you’re using a comparison site to book <a href="https://pppn.co.uk/contractor-accommodation/slough">accommodation</a>. Many sites use cookies (not the eating kind) to pick up your IP address and track your activity, so if you log in or out of a site or page, you may find that prices go up because your activity indicates you are looking and therefore the need is greater. Sneaky, right? (And you just know if they were edible cookies they’d be oat and raisin). So go incognito for the best deals!

<img src="https://pppn.co.uk/3rdly/storage/app/files/text-editor/1600418319AdobeStock_61027601.jpeg" alt="1600418319AdobeStock_61027601.jpeg">

 

Pack it up before you go-go It’s a pain in the arse packing to go on holiday, let alone for work and more often than once or twice a year. Lessen the packing torture on yourself and devote a bag (wash bag, gym bag, Gucci bag, whatever tickles your pickle) to all the essentials like your toothbrush, deodorant, shower stuff, a few pairs of clean socks and pants etc. If after every trip you replace what you used, it means it’s ready to grab and go for your next contract. TOP TIP: Free hotel stuff you’ve not used? Take it! Add it to your ready-to-go bag for your next trip. Resourceful af.   

All for one and one for all your bits You’ve identified the suspicious substance at the bottom of your bag as shampoo or shower gel, and it’s all over your clothes - amazing! But there’s a personal hygiene solution that doesn’t leak or require a million and one products to do the job. We bring to you, an all-in-one washbar! It’s like a bar of soap but for your body, your hair, your clothes - whatever you can think of! There are loads on the market, but the <a href="https://shop.drbronner.co.uk/products/pure-castile-bar-soap-peppermint/drbpepbar.aspx?productid=drbpepbar">Dr. Bronner All-One Magic Soaps</a> are great, and if you’re not keen on the bars, they have loads of multi-purpose products to reduce the risk of leakage  

I get by with a little help from my phone Your phone is your buddy: it’s your source of entertainment, connection to friends and family, access to loads of helpful resources and important for work. This makes it particularly irritating when, after a long day, you’re down to 3% battery and you’re crying for your bed and a bit of Netflix... but there aren’t any plug sockets near the bed. Practice those risk management skills and invest in either an extra long charging cable and/or a general extension lead to take with you. This is also super handy if the room is short on plug sockets in general. BTW: Keep your extra long lead in your go-bag as well just in case you forget the mains part, that way you can still charge your phone using the USB ports in the TV.

<img src="https://pppn.co.uk/3rdly/storage/app/files/text-editor/1600418097AdobeStock_211078487.jpeg" alt="1600418097AdobeStock_211078487.jpeg">

 

Lights, camera, creases If you’re the type to confine yourself to your <a href="https://pppn.co.uk/contractor-accommodation/maidenhead">digs</a> during downtime, that’s cool, but should you wish to venture out with some work pals or meet some locals, it’s worth packing some casual and dressy clothes so you’re ready for wherever downtime takes you. However, you don’t want to look a bugger in creased clothes, so while you’re taking a shower before a night on the town, hang your snazzy outfit up in the bathroom for a free and easy steam to remove those creases.  

Home is where the comforts are Bringing your fave tea and coffee with you and having your snacks of choice handy are great ways to introduce some home comforts to your digs. Include some filling dried goods in your munch hoard as well, like instant noodles (or whatever you can make with a kettle), just in case you can’t be arsed going out for food or to the shop in the evenings.  

Put on your positive pants with playlists and podcasts Music can have a great impact on your mood, so put together a playlist of your favourite tunes that remind you of good times for a pick-me-up at the start of the day or to wind down at the end (psst: Check out <a href="https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0RyQo86vEiz4diUKwcXqB0?si=yN1EFuvrRh2csgHh3BNo2A">The Contractor’s Ultimate Driving Playlist</a> and never argue over who picks the tunes again). Invest in a small portable speaker for better sound quality than your phone and for playing music in the background - there are lots of affordable options on the market as well! And finally, bored of bangers? There are loads of great podcasts out there at the moment, too. We’re particularly loving <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/1l5VDadTxZsKzjPJUud3hn?si=SJOdh4DRQl2eZprNzu1ZEg">GOSSIPMONGERS</a> and <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/09dBWzzyHt3JyWj4IplSYH?si=64UH-u9ESOOESa9-wxiyqw">The Ron Burgundy Podcast</a> for laughs that make your stomach hurt.

20 of the Weirdest Things Ever Found in Hotel Rooms

1 - Contractor = construction worker A lot of contracting roles do sit within the construction industry, but there’s actually no end to the trades and expertise that can be “contracted” out.If you’re a contractor working in IT, administration, project management, software development, research, writing or education, to name but a few, The Contractor sees you! You are valid! So jump on in, the water’s fiiiiine.&nbsp;2 - “You’ll never earn very much” Let’s talk specifically now about the more manual trades, as these are really the targets of this stereotype - but wrongly so!It’s no different than any other industry. You generally start at the bottom and work your way to the top, particularly in construction. But for trades like plumbing, HVAC, carpentry and electrics, a lot of training and licensing goes into becoming a fully qualified contractor. Let us take carpentry, for example: it’s actually considered skilled labour, and it’s in high demand with people paying a pretty penny for these services. More often than not, this is the case for all qualified master tradespeople. So it may be that in some areas of contracting, the money won’t send you spinning with dollar signs in your eyes right away, but they absolutely offer respectable earnings - and if you level up, so too does the dosh!Do you think we’d stick around if it didn’t?!<figure class="image"><img src="https://pppn.co.uk/3rdly/storage/app/files/text-editor/1601378850Screen Shot 2020-09-22 at 10.19.08.png" alt="When someone says you're just a carpenter *Jason Statham crying into a wad of cash*"></figure>&nbsp;3 - There’s no room for women in contracting. Do you want us to kick off?While it’s true that construction in particular faces a massive inequality challenge (in 2019, only <a href="https://www.gmb.org.uk/news/construction-industry-just-125-women-and-54-bame">1 in 8</a> construction workers were women - we know, wow), which can be off-putting for many potential female construction workers, that’s not to say that change isn’t welcome.And let’s get it right, this outdated notion isn’t coming from inside today’s workforces, which are so far removed from the wolf-whistling, crack-scratching, hyper-masculine characters of times gone by.So, here’s to brighter and more equal times ahead, contractor friends!&nbsp;4 - We’re uneducated Hold my beer.I mean, bad construction <a href="https://www.boredpanda.com/funny-construction-fails-home-improvement-disasters/?utm_source=google&amp;utm_medium=organic&amp;utm_campaign=organic">really is funny</a> (albeit slightly alarming from a H&amp;S point of view), but as we touched on in #2, a hell of a lot of work goes into becoming a fully qualified and licensed contractor in any industry. You might even find a few A Levels and degrees knocking about as well - I know, crazy right? Wrong.These can be highly skilled jobs requiring years of experience and training via apprenticeships under the supervision of a master tradesperson.And let’s not forget, contractors are essentially running their own businesses, managing their own time and projects, doing their own accounts… the list goes on!We’re essentially multi-tasking wizards, so leave over.<figure class="image"><img src="https://pppn.co.uk/3rdly/storage/app/files/text-editor/1601379951Screen Shot 2020-09-29 at 12.45.28.png"></figure>&nbsp;5 - There’s no job security Haha, good one!While the construction industry still bears the scars of jobs lost during the financial crisis, it’s actually bounced back with a growing demand for skilled workers. Not to mention that as a contractor, you have the freedom to go where the work takes you. And did you know that the average UK worker has 6 jobs in their lifetime? Contracting is no different: with every contract you complete, you’re gaining experience, increasing your credibility and progressing your career.Now for the cherry on top! According to <a href="https://www.ipse.co.uk/uploads/assets/uploaded/48395626-caf9-4107-95474ff3a10d525e.pdf">IPSE</a>, in 2018 over half of UK businesses used contract workers to access specialised talent. Add to this demand your ever-growing network, and you might just notice the next contract finding you.&nbsp;Are you a contractor? What other myths, stereotypes and misunderstandings curdle your custard? Let us know so we can call them out and set the record straight!In the meantime, have the contractor accommodation booking experience you deserve with <a href="https://www.pppn.co.uk/">PPPN</a>. From booking to bed and beyond, they’ll get you sorted.

“You know, I’m something of a respected professional myself” - 5 Incorrect Assumptions About Contractors

For contracting newbies and veterans alike, being away from home 4-5 days a week comes with trials and tribulations.So, we thought we’d put together a handy list for you of some Dos and Don’ts that we’ve picked up along our contracting travels.&nbsp;Do:...make sure you have the essentialsWe’re not your mum, but we have forgotten the essentials before and it’s a pain in the arse. Who knew a trip to Tesco could be such a ball-ache?As we mentioned in our <a href="https://www.pppn.co.uk/thecontractor/post/81/the-easy-way-or-the-highway-7-tips-and-hacks-every-contractor-should-know">blog post</a>, devote a bag to all the essentials like a toothbrush, deodorant, shower stuff, a few pairs of clean socks and pants etc. Keep it stocked up after every trip, replacing what you used, and it’ll be ready to grab and go for your next contract - no essentials spared! &nbsp;<figure class="image"><img src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/GzY_9Ysy9yxhaPd6S0mAE90bkBoRMZmtPEK1G4mtPqijTNgwPhEQJB-lZnT4eoaBNIuGvetvSW0NLtEW1LJOg2CBfQsYWUbV0HAV8rhmONh6ZwOqSQDYkdyJq7JPKsDlY2p6A9zf"></figure>&nbsp;...research contractor accommodation before you bookIf you’re having to arrange your own accommodation, do your research before committing the best part of your week to staying somewhere subpar. Remember to browse incognito as well so they don’t hike the prices up on you! <a href="https://www.pppn.co.uk/">PPPN</a> has a great quality accommodation offering, with digs designed specifically with contractors in mind.&nbsp;...connect with friends and familyTouch base with your nearest and dearest. You’ll feel less like you’re a million miles away on the work-train with no stops (so poetic). Whether it’s a text, a video chat, or a meme-tag, you’ll feel better for it.<figure class="image"><img src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/JGWu-8nIOtG2vZfVePocAx8159uAlD445S7MwEcHCV71swHmy8MfTdcibMYrnXFvAtzAs-m2nd_nqxuYaYe4bEDECCa5ExZX65QAdmvmqY8STELLy4uk25lGCXHkEF9JiafSrKO1"></figure>&nbsp;...explore the areaWe’re going to start this off with a little disclaimer for you: we get that you may not always have the time or permit to turn every job you do into a mini break away. Having said that, we’re all about the benefits of a work-life balance here at The Contractor, so if you do find the time for a walk about the <a href="https://pppn.co.uk/contractor-accommodation/slough">area</a> or to take in some sites (well, that totally depends on your location...), we’d strongly recommend that you do so.It’s also great to have some separation between work life and personal life, and taking some time for yourself to switch off from work for a while has The Contractor’s seal of approval.Besides, you may never frequent this <a href="https://pppn.co.uk/contractor-accommodation/reading">area</a> again - the world is your playground (yes, even at 38).&nbsp;...get to know your new workmatesYou’re going to be spending a decent amount of time with these people, so you might as well enjoy it! You’re all in the same boat and know the highs and lows of the job, so take the time to get to know each other. At least then you don’t have to go to the pub on your own.&nbsp;Don’t: ...forget the wayThe last thing you want to be doing after a full day’s work is driving around tired and frustrated looking for your elusive accommodation. Familiarise yourself beforehand with the rough route from the job to your digs and double check with the accommodation which postcode will get you there, because believe it or not, Google isn’t always right. <a href="https://www.pppn.co.uk/thecontractor/post/80/preparedness-level-expert-7-handy-apps-to-help-you-boss-contractor-life">Handy apps</a> like <a href="https://www.pppn.co.uk/thecontractor/post/80/preparedness-level-expert-7-handy-apps-to-help-you-boss-contractor-life">Waze</a> for example are great for when you’re driving around a new area.<figure class="image"><img src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/AYeaHXLM1-1SE553x_dOHIT1qYqR0Vsm0Gk_dGXPl3Jlzjma8GIJips2YfyirfkvRROXLp0H80z_ftaf5XMGWmJ1z8bu9jOmKhXfDI344SqWg3solooqQT3gckoRD2juu0nykgR5"></figure>&nbsp;...leave your comforts at homeBringing your familiars with you like your favourite snacks, tea and coffee and comfy loungewear, to name but a few, can make all the difference to how comfortable your time on the contractor road is.&nbsp;...forget to check your digs before you leaveEarPods are expensive. Forgetting your favourite pair of trackies? Unthinkable. For the sake of your valuables, check the room and check again before you leave. Besides, no one wants to come across your dirty socks as they’re cleaning.&nbsp;...underestimate the power of a good night’s sleepIt’s The Contractor here, wearing their sensible hat and telling you to rest up! If your job is quite physical, sleep is really important to help your body heal. Not to mention working in an unfamiliar area with unfamiliar people is actually exhausting. Put the phone down half an hour earlier than you normally would - don’t worry, TikTok will still be there in the morning - and catch some much needed z’s.<figure class="image"><img src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/e-fwj2zeM2P3ytb_aaiZTTfvt52t5BoIRhIZckX7-BY96Hjm5AKZEL6TniocR36fKI7yuraoCZJOcvxiYTp0uZcmbP5f3_8yfK7ABpgAp2rhiS1rz4cp1nzZRNBXHQYeYECYenVI"></figure>&nbsp;What are your personal dos and don’ts?

Screwed On Acquired By The Contractor

The year is 2020. Halloween falls on a Saturday night for the first time in 5 years. But we’re in the midst of a global pandemic. Horrifying.With many of us having to confine ourselves to our homes as a result, we thought we’d share with you 10 underrated and lesser known horror movies that will bring spooky season right to your sofa.&nbsp; 1 - The RitualFour friends - Phil, Dom, Hutch and Luke - take a hiking trip in the wilderness of Sweden. The group is burdened with regrets, resentment and guilt, which really doesn’t help when their mate busts his knee mid-hike, they decide to take a “short cut” (we know, we’re rolling our eyes too) and scary shit starts happening in the woods.It’s a fantastic British horror film with stellar scares, eerie vibes and some laughs thrown in too. &nbsp;<figure class="image"><img src="https://pppn.co.uk/3rdly/storage/app/files/text-editor/1603704369The Ritual.jpg"></figure> 2 - 30 Days of NightArguably one of the scariest depictions of vampires we’ve ever seen, 30 Days of Night tells of the town of Barrow, Alaska, preparing for the annual month-long polar night. But before they cosy down, grave and gruesome happenings befall the town, and it becomes a battle of survival for the next 30 days.This is one of those movies which is great in its own right, horror and jump-scares aside! 3 - RecWe love a bit of found-footage! A refreshing take on the genre, Rec centres on a news reporter and her cameraman, who, when covering a night shift at the local fire department, tag along to a call out about a screaming woman trapped in her apartment in Barcelona.&nbsp;Things begin to spin swiftly out of control when the residents of the apartment building appear to contract a terrifying virus. You guessed it - zombies!This is a subtitled film, but you’ll be so quickly engrossed in it that you won’t even notice. Besides, the visuals and performances speak for themselves. 4 - Creep 1 &amp; 2Okay so these are actually two films, but the second is just as good as the first and if you haven’t seen either, you could definitely watch both in one night!Where do we even begin to describe these movies? These found-footage flicks centre on Josef, an eccentric character that hires a videographer/filmmaker in both movies to film him over a period of time - to different ends.The whole ride is just bonkers, and the insane depravity of Josef knows no bounds. They’re fantastic movies that you won’t be sorry you watched! &nbsp;<figure class="image"><img src="https://pppn.co.uk/3rdly/storage/app/files/text-editor/1603704966Creep.png"></figure> 5 - The Fourth KindAliens want in on the Halloween action, too! The Fourth Kind is a terrifying fictional documentary that purports to be based on real events occurring in Nome, Alaska - what is it with Alaska? Psychologist Dr. Abigail Emily "Abbey" Tyler uses hypnosis to uncover memories of alien abduction from her patients, with some seriously creepy findings. You’ll be Googling this film afterwards, just to make sure that it isn’t real. 6 - The Witch: A New England Folktale The most recently released movie on our list, The Witch will either have you firmly on board or not at all, but we think it’s a risk worth taking.A period supernatural horror set in 1630s New England, The Witch centres on a family of English settlers banished from their colony over a religious dispute. Then, something creepy in the woods gets involved and it all continues downhill from there, really.Deliciously dark and sinister, this film unsettles you right to your core. You almost feel like you shouldn’t be watching it. It’s a yes from us! &nbsp;<figure class="image"><img src="https://pppn.co.uk/3rdly/storage/app/files/text-editor/1603704648The Witch.jpg"></figure> 7 - Grave EncountersHear us out: this film has had such a bad rep for what is, while not a terribly inventive addition to the genre, a solid, shit-scary ghost movie set in an asylum. Happy Halloween everyone!Poking fun at cheesy American ghost-hunting documentaries, this third and final found-footage movie on our list isn’t short of some sophisticated visuals, disorientating scenes and class A jump scares.Take it with a pinch of salt and enjoy the ride! 8 - The Autopsy of Jane DoeWe were pleasantly surprised when we gave this film a go! This movie centres on father-and-son coroners who experience supernatural phenomena while examining the body of an unidentified woman.With moments so tense you forget to breathe and a pesky bell that you’ll definitely be keeping an ear out for in the night (you’ll see what we mean), this is a perfect Halloween flick. 9 - The DescentThis is one of the scariest films ever made. There. We said it. High praise indeed for a film about a group of friends that explore some caves, but my god expect 3 feet of air between your arse and the sofa with this one. We don't need to say anything else about this film, you just have to experience it to believe it! &nbsp;<figure class="image"><img src="https://pppn.co.uk/3rdly/storage/app/files/text-editor/1603705184The Descent.jpg"></figure> 10 - Dark SkiesWe’ll take another order of sci-fi horror, please!The Barrett family, mum Lacy, dad Daniel, older son Jesse, and younger son Sammy, live on a quiet suburban street. All is well - until it isn’t.Strange things start happening in their home, from oddly arranged furniture to a load of crows flying into the house, the answers are not as straightforward as you might initially think.With some great twists and turns and genuinely scary moments, you can’t go wrong.&nbsp;What are some of your favourite horror films? Are you big on ghosts or gore? Aliens or zombies? Let us know!This Halloween, avoid the horrors of a terrible contractor accommodation service with <a href="https://www.pppn.co.uk/">PPPN</a> - we had to get it in somehow.

Never have to rely on that mate for directions again - Waze

Driving in an unfamiliar area isn’t ideal when you’ve got time frames to abide by and schedules to stay on top of. Add to that concoction an outdated built-in satnav that swears down there isn’t a roundabout ahead, and you’ve got one hell of a stress cocktail coming together.

“I spend how long on the bog every day?” - Toggl
