Thanks very much to ALL for the advice!
I was planning on visiting FTO's to have a look, and your replies have highlighted how important that is.
I was originally leaning towards Jerez, thanks for pointing out the lack of a FI course VFE, doh! I will definitely be going out there for a visit; WWW do you know of any times that I should avoid visiting?
BF2, I MAY see you there in the summer
Once again, thanks for your time, and the best of luck in whichever way you choose to achieve your dreams people!
