  8. Hi,

    I'm going to do my CS30/31 at Lark Valley Training in Halesworth. I was made redundant last year,but my contract said they had to keep me for a year,so i was put on groundkeeping of 64 acrcs with two other guys,so alot of grass/headge/tree cutting...

    Which i've found to have loved!! So i've decided to use my redundancy money to pay for the courses and then look for a part time job trying to learn as much as i can...

    That's great about your job,sounds very interesting but hard work???

  14. Hi, I emailed the college/training school about hiring kit from them for the course, but they told me that they don't hire out or have any kit that can be used by me.....But there is a firm not far away that i could hire from and maybe afterwards i could pick what i need when i look for a job???? I like the idea of buying some boots before hand.........
  15. Hi again, What do you think about renting the kit to cover the list, then buy what i need after the course??
  16. Thank you,Peter.
