At last! A clear (but v. bumpy) day

It's been about 2 months since I've been up - managed about 5 circuits today, including two glide approaches. A few dodgy landings but the last was my best yet...hardly felt the ground...guess that's what you'd call a greaser! Quite chuffed with it as it was a bit bumpy with a 20 knot wind just off the runway heading.

Instructor did make a point of checkng the nose wheel strut on getting out and reminded me not to push the yoke forward on touchdown...a habit I have now DEFINATELY thrown!
