  1. Hi all, Looking for some good advice in getting forestry/ground work in New Zealand starting around September if possible? Not fussy about where I'm based as I've been before to play rugby and it's all good! Currently work for a firewood firm at supervisor level of which I do all the felling myself so I'm very used to hard work. Looking into forwarding/harvester but training costs are astronomical in the UK! Got my CS30,31,32,38, UA1 and emergency first aid. Will hopefully have UA2.1 & 5, CS39, pruning and chipper tickets by September (money permitting!) Would it be best to sort a job first or just go out with a visa? Any work/visa advice no matter how big or small would be really useful. Cheers
