    I have tweaked the list again and have decided to wait until 10.30 and then I going to do 1 hour flying and no more..... I know it is late but I was shattered when I got in from work at 7.30 but I had done a quick food shop as well and got petrol ready for the long trip to Skeggie tomorrow. I did manage to actually cook a proper tea today with spuds and two lots of veg... I am ashamed to say that this was the first time in what feels like months.:o

    Hope every one is ok and hugs to those that are poorly. Will report back at 11.30 to let you know how I get on with nocturnal flying :D

    We're more focussed on the important things... have a look at the first post and try to get to level one each day (ignore the days that have already gone, they come round again soon enough!). Level one will gradually get easier, and then you can move up to level 2, so that over time things will improve.

    Luckily, we can't actually tell what you're wearing (there are plenty of flyladies whose first HHC of the day is spent showering and getting dressed!), or how shiny your sink is. We're aiming for tidy, followed by clean - if you want to move on to shiny, then you're moving into a different league!
