    Cheers guys;) I'm already dragging brash all day and have a basic Knowledge but was thinking of maybe upping my understanding of tree science and I figured a tree ident course/class would point me in the right direction!! It's one thing cutting a tree but understanding the tree and how it grows, when and how it can be cut is another:) Anyhow, thanks for the comments and I will start with a garden centre and a good tree book and take it from there.

    What I did when I started was google tree surgeons and your area!! Then write a letter stating what you can offer them! Like being a hard worker, very keen to learn. Then copy and paste to all company's in area. I received a handful of replies all not what I was hoping for!! But I didn't give in, I then saved for a few weeks and got my cs30. Then tried again, sent the same letter to the same company's with the extra course. It went a long way dude. I got 2 offers for work. I guess I shown willing, which went a long way. Also don't work for free!!! It is a very hard trade which will give you mental and physical damage on a day to day basis;) enjoy,relax and wait dude. It will all fall into place.
