Niiice :) If you don't mind me asking (As I've always wanted to get a pilots license), how much money do you think you've spent to get to the point of solo flights?

I don't mind you asking at all. All together, including books, equipment, lessons, my medical exam and written exams, i have so far spent just under £5000. It would be closer to £4500 though if i'd managed to keep the same instructor and school for the whole course.

It is a very worthwhile investment though. There is no feeling that compares to the first time you pilot a plane on your own. There is such a great sense of achievement after you land safely.

Wow that's a lot less than I first suspected! :)

I can only imagine how amazing the feeling is being up in the air in a plane on your own :) Love to do it one day - When I have some funds :p

Just finished fitting this granite composite sink. Was a replacement as the last one developed a crack where the draining board joins the bowl.

It is amazing and i seriously couldn't recommend it enough to people.
 
Thanks. I just hope it lasts more than 12 months this time as its a nightmare trying to remove it without damaging the worktop.

I really need to buy a new suit for the wedding but can't afford another £100 this month :(

What shoes are these please mate? Just bought some new ones for work but prefer the look of these!
 
An expensive start to the month, fingers crossed completing on my flat in 2 weeks so plenty to spend on that and furniture etc. The essentials need to be put in place first- bought a server last month, now the turn of the HTPC
