Thanks to everyone for their encouraging and honest replies / opinions. I will be taking a week or two off from my current job some time in the new financial year (April) and advertising my availabilty to work as a groundie that week. I am hoping this will get me something even if only a couple of days to get me started, prepared to work anywhere there's a campsite near by on the Uk mainland.

Got my own PPE but can't afford a decent saw just yet.

Watch this space and I will report back when I land my first job.

 

Thanks again everybody !!!

 

Pete :biggrin:

Get stuck in mate and enjoy yourself.If you are fit and have looked after yourself then theres no stopping you.

I`m in my forties.I`ve done arb as a sideline for about seven years.Mostly agricultural work, clearances etc, but i will soon be made redundant.I cant wait.I`m booking up a climbing course and will run away from my boring job laughing.

I`ve worked with people half my age with no get up and go.Sitting around picking their noses,whinging about blisters, aching feet,getting up too early.A couple of hours graft and they`re done.

 

Too old? righto.:001_tt2:
