Your doing similar hours to what i was doing in Dubai. Sh1te. No amount of money makes you happy if your working like a dog.
Having said that, theres no point advising you to stay where your happy as you don't know if the other job will be better or worse than the one your in now. It could be you change, hate it and your earning £10k less, but you get to see your son more.
Quite frankly, i'd stay where you are as you will probably get a raise anyway and you may also be able to sit down with someone and explain the situation for maybe claiming some expenses.
Failing that, as your contracting and not cards in. Why don't you see an accountant with regards setting up a business and making yourself an employee and shoving all your travel expenses through that name so you can claim them back. I'm sure the company your contracting to now wouldn't mind. You'd still be working for them but contracting to them under your company name rather than an employed contactor.
You get a decent accountant to sort it and you will save a shedload of cash.
Theres only you that can make the decision really. I always trust my gut instinct and if a job feels right or i get a good vibe from a place i will go for it regardless of dough which may be on offer elsewhere.
