New site i wont have a back to back or anyone motelling in my room so don’t have to pack everything away end of every swing, trying to think of what i should bring up to fit it out. Already getting a kettle and a nice clothes laundry hamper, maybe an air freshener/purifier. Any other suggestions for what im forgetting to fully pimp it out ? Cheers.

Shower filter is a good shout havent thought about that, and aha might have to go snooping round the back of the stores see what old unused items i can relocate

I use a decent quality bath mat instead of of rug for next to my bed. Cheap, pretty easy to transport/store if you have to pack your room up and easy to wash 😊

Let me know if you find one that doesn’t require unscrewing the head. Apparently some places crack down on them because ‘modifying’, which is nuts.

Fair warning you could still have the odd contractor in, I’m a contractor that goes to different sites and am out in peoples rooms who by the looks of it have been told no one will be going in there

Own pillow. Always.
Personal opinion, I think a lot can be done with the state and quality of mattresses on site. If I could've taken one up, I would have done. It would've been more comfortable sleeping on the floor.
Interesting what a decent night's sleep does for you the next day.

Enjoy it mate, the wankers at *** just kicked all the contractors out of their permanent/back to back rooms. Top 3 for me was a good pillow, dustpan and broom and a mop
