Am I welcome?

[pgkevet]

I'd just like to check that I'm not treading on toes or feelings by joining here.

 

I'm a retiring vet who fell in love with a chunk of North Wales that includes about 8 acres of broadleaf and hope to be moving in later this year..so I have a lot of questions.

 

Yes, I do my reading and research but as you all know there's no substitute for professional advice when it comes to sorting out truth from fiction and fantasy on the web.

 

So can I lurk and pick your collective brains with a mix of basic questions or would folk rather I left?

everyone's welcome!

That's exactly what we are here for, it's good for talk between professionals and also for non professionals to get advice and read about what we do.

 

There's no such thing as a stupid question!

Welcome to the mighty world of arb talk.

Whats your first daft question ?

[Rob D]

Course you're welcome and ask away!

 

 

One pointer. If you have questions about PPE and chainsaw use in general the first thing you will have fired back at you is have you done the relevant CS qualifications.

 

If you are planning on using a chainsaw in your woodland you need a) the correct equipment and b) the correct training.

 

This is your first port of call.

Its good to have nonpros onboard, gives us opportunity to practise on how to talk to our customers! (And explain things in an easyway!)

You'll know you're welcome when someone posts a, "Wot's wrong with my dog", question, c/w photos for you to see.

Also, I'd bet that if you offer a good cup of tea and a few biscuits some of the local tree guys would be happy to visit your property and give some advice.
