Hello everyone!

Hello everyone

I'm from Staffordshire Moorlands & not actually in the trade. I joined up for help & advise on how to get wood to heat my home. There are plenty of farms in the village where I live that sell logs but I prefer to saw & split my own plus it's cheaper.

Hello everyone,

 

I'm based in Norfolk where I've recently finished an eighteen-month training course designed to give some foundation experience and qualifications across several land based industries. I managed to get some useful entry-level tickets like CS30/31, brushcutter, woodchipper, pesticides and tractor; definitely enjoyed the chainsaw stuff most of all and spent last winter volunteering at my local wildlife reserve felling some wet woodland as part of a reed bed restoration project. It's made my mind up that I want a career in arb so I've got myself a place on a ten-week tree surgery course beginning in September that will give me my aerial and felling at height tickets amongst other things. I've just got a job with a local tree surgeon so I can keep up saw time and carry on gaining experience but I wondered if anyone on here had any pointers for me as I'm pretty green... Thanks!!

Welcome Johan.

You will soon find that Tom D is the only person who actually talks any sense. The rest of us are just muppets.

Cheers I'll try and remember that. I often find the village idiot is more clued in than they let on :biggrin:

Sadly not the case with this one! I have to write my posts in Crayon, it's my carer who types them out.

She's called Cynthia and she lives in a house.

You'll have to describe it to me Nigel, no TV in the yurt.

 

Mrs Idiot and I tend to while away the hours before rumpy-pumpy digesting our cabbage broth and De-lousing.
