Out of interest does anyone have any evidence.. firm or anecdotal of people taking the p1ss and claiming free landings?
Yup

How about "I was intending to fly to x (some distance away). The further I got toward my destination the lower the cloud became so I went above it." (he has an IMC)
"I eventually decided I wouldn't be able to break cloud at my destination, did a 180 and flew back past the cloud front into clear VMC. Half an hour later I landed back at base and asked for a free landing because it was a weather diversion."

Funnily enough he didn't get it.
