No ASI

Flew a C182 back from Italy VFR, recently. No ASI readings, but no problem.
One panel mounted GPS and one stby hand held. Always had an idea of surface windspeed from Volmet and ATC chat, so easy to work out appropriate GS required for various stages of a flight.
On return to UK, maintenance organisation cleaned out insect debris lodged in pitot feed in windsceen sidepost area.
