Haha, I'm definitely gonna avoid biscuits! For sure David, going to keep my hand (or legs) in the climbing world. I'm sure Dan and the boys will keep me on my toes at uktt:thumbup: Dan, think I'll always be a secret grunt deep down, for now though, I'm quite getting used to the idea of GIS devices, surveys, desks and NO chainsaw trousers:lol:

All in all, its all part of the school of life. They'll learn stuff they may never need ever again, their dreams may come true, their dreams may not. But they'll still learn a valuable lesson in life along the way Oh, and there's no such thing as mistakes

Some trees have more meaning, and spiritual meaning than others, it wasn't just the Baobabs as far as i could tell. It also seemed to be the larger Kapoc's and Mahogany's that "stood" out. The first set of Baobab pics in the Montage (behind the makasutu bench), we had to ask permission to climb, same went for the Kapoc towards the end. You could just tell speaking to the locals that they looked up to and after certain trees, kind of like in a mother earth type of way, and understood the importance they played in their lives. They also found it pretty funny that we wanted to climb them!! When we took some of them up with us they were overjoyed, and without sounding girly, it was an awesome experience. One i would recommend to anybody:thumbup:

Yeh there was some fruits on some and non on others, seemed to be the start of the season from what i could tell. We also had Baobab juice every morning for breakfast, its a bit dry (the fruit), but they mix it with milk and other fruity stuff and it was well nice

Gonna do the BSc next Paul, at least that's the plan. Got so much sciency/reserchy stuff going round my head that I will one day be a Dr. Hard work and perseverance is the key:thumbup: Cheers Ian:thumbup:

We don't know David, Nod asked the locals about these baobabs as quite a few had "work" done on them.... None would own up to it! Apparently they grew that way:lol: There's even a stigma on pollarding in Gambia:lol::lol:

Google is your friend:biggrin: Search "tree companies" "arborist" "Canada" "jobs" I'm sure you'll find something, also if you use the search function here on arbtalk there will be a back log off threads on work in Canada. Good luck:thumbup:
