I used the Trevor Thom, did me OK.
I'll also second what B47 says. Even if it's a nice day there's nothing wrong with flying the odd IFR trip either, keeps your mind ticking over in instrument mode even if you're not actually on the dials.
I'm amazed that no one has been along yet to tell you it's a waste of time and you should be navigating by lodestone 'cos real pilots don't need IMC ratings, they just do it by smelling which way up they are. Probably in a taildragger that they can land in a 50kt crosswind just using their knees on the stick.
