hey photonq, I've got a friend that went to england for a few months and spent some time in london, when she came home I asked her if it was really as dark, damp and dreary as they say, her reply; "yeah, its a lot like Michigan". That said, I finished my training early oct, the next week(when I was going to go flying on my own) it started to rain, and between the rain and the wind I didn't get to fly till nov 5(and that was risking it with the wind)
I feel ya[]
P.S. who needs drinking water, we got a gazillion gallons-sorry liters, of freshwater surrounding us
