    Thanks for the thread. I am in this week and have my frog list ready (it didn't go too well this week). I am only aiming for level 1s, anything else is a bonus. We get married in just under 5 weeks and there a few things to do regarding that this week which obviously take priority. I also want to get into the garden if it is fine and I normally leave it until after flying. If it is only level 1s and garden first then I might get more done. Will post my own list in a bit once I have added my own stuff to it.

    I'm in :)
    Thanks for the thread FCC :)

    I'll try to do better this week, I think I fell off the planet last week.

    Gonna be a toughy as we're off on hols the week after (Nanny moving in to watch after doggies and chooks.. and complaining about it already!) so I need to pack, and work out what we need to take.
    Considering a cold box to take food with. Not that I wanna spend out on it mind, not the point really is it ;)
    Otherwise it'll be the local supermarket - not sure what it'll cost there, but I'm sure we'll work it out :)

    Hope everyone's okay, hugs sticks and spoons as needed x

    evening all - just back from camping and have realised that all my paperwork is in a state and I am in a pickle with getting payments in as well as with tax and NI ......(can I be taxed for money I haven't yet received I wonder!) This is the Major General of the Frog Army - in fact it may have become an elephant that needs to be eaten in small bites:p

    I'm going to bite the bullet and do a full room by room, home/study/work/other work list:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: This may be frog no.2 wish me luck

    got a big scary meeting tomorrow for the other work that I'm not getting paid for properly so I'm going to try and tackle some small jobs tonight to take my mind off it.

    I've also got an assignment due wednesday night which is facilitating a discussion with the tutorial group, and its only 50% prepared.....:eek::eek::eek:

    I'm in again, mostly following my own lists but it helps me to keep going if I feel like I'm part of a group.
