    Morning I have not been here for months and months. As a result my home resembles a jumble sale with piles of stuff on almost all surfaces. :( Please motivate me.

    Hi:j
    I'm in again please! Thanks to Pigpen, Toots and Soappie.

    Missed the end of last week as we went away so really need to get a full week's flying in this week!

    Got my Xmas tree!! They were giving them away at B&Q if you spent £30.00 (stuff we needed). Now I know it is unlikely to last to the big day but we've stored it in a cool place and even if it does shed its needles it'll be covered in decorations so no one will know!!(we also have an artificial one if necessary). And delivered another load of Xmas pressies.

    Loads to do this week so need to get on with the list.

    Welcome to any newbies and hugs to anyone who needs one.

    Jinky - what's up????

    Jx
    I could give up chocolate, but I'm no quitter!
