if i could relive from a levels on i would probably have done the same as i did : go to askham bryan do hnd/foundation degree in hort and then go somewhere else prob newton rigg or barony to do arb or forestry.

I managed to do an NC in Estate Maintanence and Gamekeeping an another NC in Integratred Rulral Land use and an HNC Countryside Recreation and Conservation Management all at Elmwood College, Cupar, Fife. I would do it all again at the same college with the same people. Many good times. So I choose other.

in the early 1990's I did NC arb at Myerscough. The course and college were excellent and modern. The only drawback I found was their climbing technique (strop on, strop off) was out of date even in the early 1990's.

Then did HND arb at houghall. College was 1950's style. outdated, and the food was rubbish. But the course was ok, some parts of it were excellent, others adaquate. I guess you get that with most courses.
