Only flying today has been to put rubbish out, bring washing in and tidy it away. Kitchen looks like a bomb site - must get on top of my dailies.
Anyway - shall declutter myself to bed. I am hoping to get home early tomorrow so can then do some serious flying."Everything will be alright in the end. If it's not alright, it's not the end."
