  1. When i worked for a grounds maintance company we did alot of grass cutting for different schools for the councils. Also we did the strimming, hedge cutting and weed spraying. Most of our contracts were ok but some were a pain in the back side to do. We also did the sports field line marking which including full size Running tracks, football and rugby, cricket, rounders. Measuring lines for shot put and javalin and some tennis and netball, basketball courts on outdoor hard surfaces It was all good fun and the things me and my supervisor use to get up to was crazy

    Hello to all members, Im new to this forum My name is Gareth Fox im 25 years old and im a site mager at a primary school. Ive found this forum while looking for web sites on climbing trees . Let me tell you abit about myself. When i went school i worked as a Jr site supervisor while doing a NVQ level 1 in holticulter. After two years i left and went to work for a grounds maintance company doing grass cutting, sports feild line marking, hedge cutting weed spraying and tree surgary. I enjoyed that alot but after two years i found that i wasnt getting anywhere as the boss wasnt giving me training to improve other than getting me in the basic maintance and crosscutting coasre and spraying. After that i paid for myself to do my aerial rescue and started to look for another job. I could find a secure job so i went back to a site supervisor job and been doing it since. Now im doing weekend work for a friends tree company and getting abit of climbing in too and im thinking of coming back into it but i need to have a good think first as ive just brought a house with my partner and money is as always a big issue Thanks for taking the time into reading a sort story about my life so far Thanks Gaz
