Cake Decorating

india

I am very keen to learn cake decorating. I have found a course that starts in september but it's £220. I work so there are no concessions.

I would just like some advise about what I can do in the meantime.
I got a book from the library about occassion cupcakes, I'm going to
start off by practicing those then once I've mastered them more onto another book.

I've brought a basic 100 piece decorating kit from ebay with bags and nozzles.

Does anyone have any other suggestions, know of any good books or cheaper courses in west london/Ealing area?

Thanks
