Thanks for the reply! I already hold a class 2 medical, and going for Class 1 probably in March.

I have bought the starter pack (Pooley's) and I have already started Air Law, and I can say, it's a bit boring, but I had a look through the other books and they seem far more interesting

I have been in the air quite a few times, a friend of mine has a PPL and he takes me with him quite often and I love it!

About the handset, I have seen handsets for 90 pound and for 500 pound I don't think buying the cheapest one is a good idea, but I also don't want to spend 500 pound on it! I'm working part time and still studying. I earn enough just to fly an hour per week. Maybe in the summer I will be able to fly more. I'm hoping to get my PPL by the end of summer. Hopefully!

Any other advice highly appreciated.
