Having spent two years working full time in London, and more than ten years before that developing in PHP and running Linux systems, I decided earlier this month that rather going for another full-time position, I would instead at least spend some time contracting, as a way to expand my horizons by working on a number of different projects this year. The tax and pay implications are also quite positive.

The hard part of this is, of course, finding the contracts, and especially a first, though with so much experience, I’m not foreseeing a huge problem, and instead have been just a little bit picky for my first contract to get a project I’m well suited for, and can make a good impression with.
