An up and down day!

Well,I turned up at 9o'c for the skills test on the section I failed last week,the weather was just about do-able although not brilliant but I decided to give it a look.
We went up to 4000 ' but there was no horizon and vision was quite hazy,even the clouds did not have a clear base.
So I decided that trying steep 360's without any horizon was giving myself a hard time and told the examiner that I was not happy to continue.
Once she was sure that I had made the decision and ended the test, she told me that I had made the right choice.
So I may go back later today if the wx improves,if not have next Friday and Saturday booked.
