Thanks for the replies folks. This is just the information I wanted. I have spoken to the CFI a couple of times, and had a 1hr trial lesson the other week. Just for the record, I live in Stockport, so Sheffield is about as far as I want to travel, and I'm not a fan of Barton anyway.
I have an afternoon booked next Sunday, so if I'm early I might pop in and see you whirls, but please don't try and convert me to rotary, I have done some with a freind, and although I agree that it's the most fun you can have with your clothers on, my missus might not like the price tag!!!
Thanks again for the replies, and these sum up the impression that I got as well, and I think it's worth noting that nothing bad has been said about them, and that is a good thing
