Chaps,
Its all well and good diving into training, however, one of the FIRST things you should consider is getting a class 1 medical. If, for any reason you are not granted one from the CAA any training you do, will be a waste of time and money, so book yourself an appointment with the CAA and get it.
There is lots of useful info on this site using the search function, regarding pros and cons of all routes in the industry and lots of sound advice and experience from guys that have been there and done it.
The whole process will require a tremendous amount of research and thought. It will also require a tremendous amount of dedication and hard work, and lots of ups and downs, however, if you love flying and aviation, the rewards it brings are very satisfying.
I wish you all the best with it.
Cheers.
