Cheers for the replies guys.
Also did my AFF at the Freefall Uni. Really enjoyed my course by the end of it but there were some times I thought I couldn't do it. The instructors there are great. Managed to give me the confidence to carry on. I had Luci for my instructor, paitience of a saint! Had to retake level3 after losing altitude awareness and had a confidence jump after a scarey level4.
Never really had a problem with gas at altitude though, was more concerned with not acidently falling out the door (those Porters are small!) but I can see beans may be a bad option!
Where do you guys all jump? Live in Nottingham so hoping to sign on at Langar.
Blue skies and soft landings.
