Glad to see your climbing now fi. I manage over 1200 acres of forest which i have free run off plus various contracts which keep my hand in 80% of the woodland of west somerset and feel the luckiest man in the world. If i could i would do it for free 7 days a week. I am also lucky enough to plant my own woodland which will grow old as i will and in years time my grandchildren can say I am responsable for this. who needs a city job and a fancy car.

Money pure n simple, after 27yrs it's hard to get excited about tree work.

 

 

I can remember starting out on my own and being so excited that one day driving home after work I thought to myself I'd actually be gutted if I won the lotto, how sad is that. Not anymore though.

haha you guys do give me a chuckle :biggrin:

 

Even though I'm fairly new to the job and only a sprout as some like to say, I still love the job because I'm outside getting fresh air and exercise, having a laugh with the lads, watching some brilliant things like 100ft trees being felled AND watching our climber doing his job in awe every day knowing that with the right attitude and approach I'll be doing that one day :001_smile:
