Ahh the old 152 vs PA-28 debate... personally I changed to a Cherokee for my navs, if only for the extra space in the cockpit over two or three hours in the air! The extra 15kt or so TAS makes it slightly more bearable as well, though the extra cost is certainly becoming an issue now.
As for my flying, been foiled by the weather yet again, I'm actually staying near the airfield now (usually it's an hour and a half away), was planning to do at least two or three of the remaining navs over four days - here I am on day three with shoddy cloud over the escarpment AGAIN and all I've done is an hour in the circuit. Someone doesn't like me I think!!!
