I departed Denham on 24 this afternoon without remembering that I had to maintain <1000ft until clear of CTR. Denham Radio chap was very nice, given that he had Heathrow calling him wondering what was going on. My apologies to all involved. I think that is my first infringement. I've only been to Denham a couple of times before but that is no excuse.

Lesson learned: always brief the departure carefully and follow the local procedures. I usually do, but flying with a non flying passenger today perhaps put me off my usual routine.
