    Dentistry had the second highest suicide rate after farmers. I wouldn't fancy it for a career. My dad was a dentist. He once had an old dear apologise about her breath, she had just been sucking on a fishermans friend. Made me laugh.

    A groundy should be like a song bird on a bird table, always looking for danger from above.

    When I started I did all my climbing with a 254 for the first 18 months. 200t is king in the tree though.

    I've got a Hobbs and only used to take it out on the biggest removals, it gets used on pretty much all my lowering now. It changes the way you work and even the average groundy can remember how to use it.

    Do you reckon you could make it pay? Even at £18k? You can get sam with his valmet, winch and timber trailer for £250 a day. None of the running costs or the hassle. I know what I'd rather do.

    I keep busy by being good at what I do, I can give you numbers for lots of companies that are cheaper than me though. People buy people, you have to sell yourself to customers. I regularly get work where I wasn't the cheapest. Network, make sure everyone knows what you do, when sending out invoices put in a handful of business cards.

    If I was a groundy and wanted work I wouldn't mind being called a gimp, hell you could call me what ever you like if the money was right.
