Am thinking a day off to play catch up would be good

Not much flying done here again But lots of xmas orientated jobs done so that is the main thing

Will try and catch up with the thread tomorrow

Well if you had kept up all week you'd have the weekend off..

The weather geek within me has surfaced again.

It's not often you see red on a Met Office weather warning:



It's all about snow - stay safe out there people

Rach - looks like your plans for tomorrow may be disrupted somewhat if the forecast is right..

That's excellent Mudders - you must be one proud Mum! Maybe you've learnt something there - perhaps your daughter works best under pressure....Bear it in mind for the future

I like to think that she's learnt not to leave stuff till the last minute but I fear you might be right! I'm going to be nervous breakdown material of the future! :rotfl:
