Just an advice..
Since you have already paid the deposit, and heading to OFT, just deal with it more positively!
No matter what you hear or see of hurdles, keep yourself focused on the mission and get back with the PPL. I think that big part of your situation is a matter of high spirit and determination rather than anything else. Believe in yourself regardless of what goes wrong around you over there!
Good luck
