    Hello,
    I'm in this week in full flight!! Thanks to the FCC.

    I've just had a week of not doing much, but I prefer my flying self, so will get back in the flight of things and do the lists !!!

    As it seems I don't have enough common sense or imagination and need some help organising. Can anyone give some tips or recommend a book or website?

    Much love to all,
    Sentora
