Hampshire Hog, I am in the same club as you (BA) so might see you around some time. At Wycombe, being that bit higher in the Chilterns, you can often find the ceilings a bit lower there than elsewhere in the south east... better get used to the wx while you're training as it will be the same after you get your license!

Seriously though, this is probably the worst time of year (from before Christmas through to mid-Spring) and it's just part of flying VFR in the UK. Making good, safe no/go weather decisions in line with your experience is, I have found, the steepest learning curve following getting the license - and the most important!
Good luck, and hope to see you around,
Andy
