Nabei... managed to hit my head really hard against the extended flaps, not once, but twice today. It still hurts like a bitch, but I guess I am lucky not to get a gash. Anyhow, I did the last of my navigation solos today and this time, there were no dramas. I have clocked enough PIC hours for now and that leaves me more time to concentrate on the remaining duals.

As always, there are mixed feelings. While I am happy to have gotten them out of the way, I know I will really, really miss the freedom of being up there alone.

Moving on, I am getting well and truly irritated with the way some people are doing things over here. My comments, with regards to this shall be reserved for another time as I am feeling tired. For now, I will just fuck it and keep my opinions to myself.

Yesterday night, I finally had the time to watch Marley and Me, a movie I have been wanting to watch for ages. Sad to say, it fell way below my expectations. The dog I had grown to know and love while reading the book was well, just a plain old dog in the movie. The heartwarming tale about the life of Marley the dog and the lives he touched was turned into a mediocre plot about the author and his family. Actually, there was not even a plot, there was no development, no climax, no anything. It was just very deadpan and boring to say the least. No one really gives a hoot about Jennifer Aniston and Owen Wilson running after a dog who crashes into things and leaves a trail of destruction. At least, I know I don't. If you don't already know my opinion, I think the book is a million times better.

Cold, tired and time for bed. Signing off.
