Why is the UK so bad?!

Hey everyone, not really got a point to this post but i'm hoping it will make me feel better to rant a bit......

Ok, so I've been waiting to do my QXC for umm.... 5 months now, ive done it dual once before that but as its been so long I have to do it again to make sure I know what I'm doing.

Two weeks ago, I wake up and its all good to go and I'm REALLY excited - but deary deary me my car decides it doesnt want to start today because the weather's so nice and that means I can finally go flying! So I end up having to pay a £60 three slot "no-show" fee because of having to cancle at such short notice... Then buy a new battery for £40...thats another lesson gone

Now, please tell me what i'm thinking is true. During these winter months the weather when frosty can be brilliant for navigation yeah? Crips blue skies and the ability to see for miles....??

Cos' at the moment I'm loosing my nerve, and a lot of money because the UK sucks for learning to fly!! Dont get me wrong, I love flying to bits and once I finally get back up there looking over the mountains above the poor sods stuck in traffic I'll remember why I stick with it....but as for now......

Please everyone, share your recent great flights with me. I need some cheering up!

Ian
