I would just like to say, as a newcomer to Ppune, thanks Guys n Gals for all of the comments posted here.
It seems that most people would elect to do spinning. It also seems that a lot of aircraft used for training are not cleared for spinning. Unfortunatlely of course, the Aircraft has not read the book, so, given the right (wrong) circumstances it will 'Depart from controlled flight'
By the same token, I am very glad to report that my instructor was very keen on 'Recovery from unusul attitudes' (I think it helped break his boredom)
I can admit to one occasion since getting my licence where I did come close 'inadvertantly' whilst circling a friends house , at about 12-1300' I was of course more interested for a moment in the ground, and forgot rule number one( Fly The Bl@@dy Aircraft), and rule number two (Gravity never gives up)
Once again, as a new Ppruner, thanks to all.
