  8. The CSCS green card a general workers card. The CSCS blue card is a skilled workers card. To get this card you need a level 2 NPTC/Lantra cert In your chosen skill, which can be gained by having NPTC/Lantra cert, which has to be no older than 5yrs. I will add, the green card lasts for 2yrs, the blue card lasts for 5yrs

  16. I think I would remove any rubbing branches and deadwood if it were mine.
