Hello all just thought it was time i posted something. :001_smile: So today i woke up it was cold and misrable, any way i dragged my self out of bed and went in for my lastday at work as a soilder :biggrin: so im walking around camp wateing for my last interview. And got asked by an officer what i was going on to do, so i told him im looking at being a tree sergen he look puzzled so i told him what it was. Anyway i went and had my meeting and told them what i was going to do when i leave , and the man who runs the regerment said come round to mine later i just said ok sir and asked why he said you will see later so of i went back home. Went round at dinner time and he said ok owen i want you to cut that tree down for me i said ok sir but it will cost you again ( he laughed how much) i said i dont know much on prices for trees so i told him £300 pound he looked at me and said ok strate away :w00t: so i just leave the army after 13 years and get my first job cutting down my old bosses little willow tree down what a day :thumbup:

If you get on the books with a firm I'd say there's no rush to buy all the gear in one hit just build it up as you go. Did your resettlement cover all your courses? I never got any but got let away a few months early
