PA28 IMC flight over the English Channel

Coasting out from the French coast at Cherbourg, on a direct track for St Catherine's lighthouse on the Isle of Wight. Clear blue skies in France, but at the mid-channel point the cloud was sitting at around 4,000 feet as a weather front was passing over the UK.
This was my first chance to use my new IMC rating in anger, so rather than fly below the clouds I was straight up on top!!
PS Apologies for the dirty windscreen, it had been a hot weekend and the bugs were out in force.
PPS I've increased the video speed between 3 and 5 times faster than reality, so I'm not going as fast as it looks I am.

@londonpommie Already done about 9 hours towards the IMC but had to take a break and not flown since January. Just need to nail the exam and complete it ASAP! Serious lack of qualified instructors though it seems. Liam

I live in belgium , what can i do with an IMC rating , can i even get it? And if yes , i'll probably only be able to fly in IMC above England

@SebastienDS In a word, no !!
It's only issued by the UK CAA to holders of a UK licence, and only usable in UK airspace.
There are noises about a sensible IR for Private Pilots coming out of EASA, so fingers crossed we'll be able to get that soon.
