  1. Think I might of hit the jackpot fingers crossed avove said they’d take me on so just waiting for them to ring about Ppe buzzing
  2. Yh I’ll definitely have a look into that pal, yh seen a lot of network rail doing alot of tree removals for the new line there putting in, do have interview with avove coming up, but gonna ring about come Monday so I’ve got a few options, wouldn’t mind New Zealand or Australia when I get abit better and experienced not sure on Canada I’m sure it’s worse weather than over here and that’s saying something😂
  3. Nah none taken pal, was just a little confused and Yh the uk isn’t the greatest of places but I’m sure the weather over there is worse, everytime I see something about Canada it’s just all snow I could be wrong but yh probs is better than over here😂
  4. To be honest mate I’d love anything at the moment as I just want the experience, no wife and kids so they could send me to Africa and I’ll go😂😂 and appreciate it mate I’ll tell them where I got it and that was long hours working😂
  5. Yh sorry if I didn’t make that clear yh Huddersfield in West Yorkshire live in holmfirth now though pal
  6. Yep to be honest wish I had funding for the course would’ve saved me a lot of money, but no I worked and probs had less of a social life to save up for them haha, if I knew about the trade coming out of school I would’ve gone straight to college to learn it but they just shove you out of school and you really have no idea what you wanna be I did anyways, glad I finally found something I love doing and found it at a pretty young age, I do have a interview lined up on Tuesday for avove and might have a few trial days, but gonna ring round on Monday it might’ve been abit silly getting all them tickets in one but least I’ve got them and company’s won’t have to pay for them because I imagine some do and then they leave with the tickets and go elsewhere appreciate the advice pal all the best bud
  7. Cheers pal appreciate it, glad there’s some nice folk on here👍have a interview with avove but gonna ring around on Monday pal and I’ll keep yous updated do appreciate it bud

  13. Hi everyone I’m on my last week of my courses at tkf training in West Yorkshire and looking for a job, I have passed cs30/31, climbing with rope and harness, Ariel rescue, Ariel cutting, emergency tree operations and on my last course doing Ariel rigging which my assessment is on Friday, only downside is that I have a few days experience on the ground before my courses I know it’s a big ask for someone to take me on but at least I have all my tickets and not costing you a penny to get them, happy to work my way up to be a climber im a young lad(22) eager to learn and a fast learner at that, have a driving license also have ttmbc lantra roadworks tickets aswell as slg(signage, lighting and gaurding) tickets aswell. Ideally looking for work either in holmfirth/huddersfield as that’s where I’m from thank you any help would be appreciated Corey

  15. So ya suggest just before he’s finishing and getting home and Yh I don’t wanna piss him off wouldn’t be a good look😂but do appreciate all the advice you’ve given me
  16. Aye sounds like a good lad coz I’m always using f words😂and the best time I think I would call him is early morning around 7 or 8 or is that a big no no some folk aren’t morning people

  18. Honestly thank you very much mate Yh it’s been a laugh posting this coz had some funny ****************ers😂and some propa advice which I love and discovered I love this by cutting down some trees down me drive and just fell in love with it can’t get enough of it haha my fitness isn’t the shittest but needs work but like you said you gather most of that from the job and have been looking for abit of gear for me sen like some tree spikes and ropes did use a ratchet strap on one of the trees down me drive haha worked wonders tbh have invested in a stihl ms271 I know this isn’t the greatest about I did have a stihl ms162 but it wasn’t powerful enough for the trees I was doing and thanks for your advice I have been phoning and emailing around no luck so far but a lot of good advice i will keep ringing and emailing around some suggested going to college but i will keep trying
  19. I’m based holmfirth in West Yorkshire but willing to travel
  20. Yh totally get that mate I ain’t bothered about being a groundsman if I’m getting training because some company’s just use you for cheap labour and dying to get into it tbh
  21. I appreciate it mate your all legends tbh😂and really do enjoy doing tree work only done a few trees down me drive but I’ve fell in love with it wish I went down this route after school and Yh it does make sense like it looks like they are putting in no effort but it’s down and if I find a company who pays for my tickets I’ll stay because I know it’s not cheap and they’ve somewhat believed in me so deffo stay with them and Yh I’m trying to get some volunteer work on my days off and I’ll see what company’s say but if not council is the route but appreciate all of ya
  22. Well I don’t fit the normal council category coz I ain’t a lazy babe😭and don’t see council do much anyways but if I enjoy being with the council I’ll stay
