  1. Hi, I've been climbing 12 years and have all relevant tickets including 40 and 41, I'm looking for a few days end of febuary if any one can help Kind Regards Ben
  2. Like doo bin said, don't work for idiots! I've had days where the job couldn't be done through no fault of the company I was working for and said I was happy to go home unpaid but he still paid me, it's all swings and roundabouts in this game
  3. I've done my fair share in this mewp! It's a great piece of kit!
  4. Hi guys, I have a day down in Taplow, Berks next week and need a tip site for possibly 2 loads of chip, can anyone help me out? Regards Ben
  5. I'm a freelance climber in the Midlands with 11 years experience, I've recently only just become freelance but it seems that everybody is content with paying 100 ish a day to half decent climbers! or I'm just a number that rings up and my details get shoved in a pile and forgotten..I have a local base of companies but need more work, any help would be good guys, Cheers Ben Sent from my SM-G900F using Arbtalk mobile app

    Hey guys, not been on here in a long time, what would you consider a fair price for a climber with a lot of experience and most tickets? I'm going self employed again and im going to charge 140 a day and im in the midlands which I thinks a fair price, I come with all the gear and 3 saws, I was contracting over 4 years ago and charged 120 then! All feed back is welcome! Regards
