Well,. got the course papers through and it's 2 yrs on a Monday night which'll end up with a L2 arboriculter cert NVQ and guess what?...... I can't do every Monday cos of my shifts.

This course doesn't include CS30/31, is it just worth me doing those on a 5 day course, will I be able to get 'simples' grounds man work on the odd occation, does anyone know?

Hi all, another newbie here, this time near sunny Sarfend in Essex lol. Just getting into the business after 20 years in casinos, done CS30, yet to pass 31 as I need experience at felling (why don't you get sent away to practice for 6 months before letting you take the assessment anymore?) and also currently studying for a Law degree to get me through old(er) age. Been chopping logs since I was a kid, and used to do much landscape work on my days off so fancied it for a full-time job and here I am. Would love to hear from people in my neck of the woods, especially if they are looking for an extra pair of hands. Finally, hi to Steve Woodley or Mark Kneller if they are on here. Cheers!

Hello Felix, welcome to the forum and fair play for making the break.

I know Steve and Mark but unfortunately neither one are on here. I've not seen Steve for years but I'm always badgering Mark to have a look on here.

Cheers Mick. If you see Mark, tell him I asked if he is enjoying his coffee more these days. He should know what you mean
