  5. I have got an interview with PJ Lush on Monday and have been offered an Interview with a company called Tree World Services, any one heard of them?
  6. Hi guys, I'll be moving to Reading very soon and was wondering if anyone knew of some reputable companies in the area as I don't want to end up working for someone with no experience or understanding of Arboriculture. Cheers, Matt.
  7. Spent 9 months in Melbourne working for a few companies but mainly one called Treescape, look them up if you're after work, really good company. Amazing city to live in, much better than Sydney (In my opinion), lots of events all year, especially in Summer. I mainly lived in a backpackers in St Kilda called Coffee Palace which was an amazing place to stay, great people, great nights out everything you could want. St Kilda is where you want to go on a night out as it's a lot cheaper than city centre, suggest visiting the city only on special occasions or when you can afford. Most of all enjoy yourself and try do a bit of travelling while you're in that amazing country.
  8. Just sitting in my tent feeling pretty drunk!! Good night in the arb camp!!!
  9. I just made this up but if people are up for it we can make it both days but I don't arrive till 5 on the Friday and then I'm camping so 1pm Saturday, and Friday for the people there.
  10. 1pm Beer Tent....all Arbtalkers, be there!!!
  11. I have TreeId, TreeID, TreesOfBritain, ForestXplorer, Tree Identifier and Leafsnap. Got them all so I can compare results with each app.
  12. I really like that! I am struggling at the moment with OP and a michoacan. Not enough turns and it doesn't grip after being advanced and adding another rap causes the hitch to seize up quite quickly. I'll be interested to see how this system copes.
  13. Haha, it just came to me one day, the misses doesn't find it as amusing as I do but you can't win them all over. Steve, thanks a lot matey, all I'll be doing is sleeping so there won't be any funny business. Your tent is safe with BigPinus I'll hopefully be getting there at about 5 on the Friday and cracking open a beer or twelve. I don't know if you want to PM me your number Steve so we can sort the tent out and maybe introduce me to a few other Arbtalkers as I have no idea who people are and I may find it awkward just stalking a bunch of guys who may be from the forum, don't need that kind of reputation. Matt.
  14. I would like to sign up for the Saturday so I'll call tomorrow. Do you start from the top like normal work climbs or is it from the bottom and set your line? Cheers.
  15. Steve I may take you up on that offer if you don't mind.
  16. Right I'm having some trouble sourcing a tent, can anyone help in this area?
  17. Visited the Greenmech factory a couple of months back, never really heard of them before that but after seeing what goes into the design and build of these machines I would definitely go for a Greenmech. Really nice staff and built here in the UK so any problems you can go directly to the factory, what more would you want?
  18. So after a long time thinking about getting a tattoo I have finally decided that if I can find a good design I will get one. I have always admired good body art but could never decide if I wanted one or not but I think you have to try everything once and a tattoo has always been up there. I want it to be tree related and not a cheesy gothic design with someone hanging from a low limb , I want a nice, good looking design to show my passion for trees, if I do decide to get one. Has anyone got any pictures or ideas that would look good as a tattoo? Discuss.....
  19. Well as long as I'm not stuck on my own.
  20. Thinking about maybe camping and getting the experience of the whole 2 days. Is anyone else camping as I'm a bit dubious about coming on my own and not knowing anyone, don't fancy powering through a crate on my own Will it be worth it? Matt.
  21. Well done Rob, just finished my first year as well. I'm just looking at what i'm going to do my individual project on for next year Matt.
  22. Gutted...slept through my alarm and didn't get up till 10.30. I was annoyed with myself but I suppose there will be other times.
