No angst here, just the irony of "our way is better" or "the grass is
always greener"...

Fly safe, ground your aircraft if the radios don't work, and I'll enjoy
steering the tug and being steered by the glider.

Cheers!

In a word, yes.
Just to add to your angst the only legal requirement on glider flying in
the UK is that you must be over 14 years of age. You do not legally need a
medical or any form of licence to fly or instruct. Funny old world.
