Need advice on returning to flying

Hello everybody,

To cut a long story short about 6 years ago I finished one of those ab initio courses and got a nice shiny CPL/frozen ATPL however, due to the pilot market and my finances going due south I have never flown since.

I have now managed to scrape enough money together to get back in the sky, I would initially be looking at just getting to PPL standard but would eventually like to become a flight instructor.

I would appreciate it if anyone could shed any light on what I have to do to get back flying, I seem to remember that if you have'nt flown in 5 years you have to do extra to get started again, also does anyone know how much it will roughly cost.

Many thanks, hope someone can help.
