I think the LMU course is the same (give or take a few ££) price as the GTS course in Bournmouth, and I believe their is now another Bournthmouth based operation as well. The CoL would be lower there and both based at an airfield!
GTS is
www.gtserv.co.uk and the other is bournmouth college of air training (I think).
There is also a new operation (Pilot Ground Training) at Kemble (another airfield).
May give some other options at same course but lower living cost.
