Oh man, so jealous. I'd bloody love to do that. Had a flying lesson about 19 years ago and that was awesome. How long did it take you to get to that stage? Think you'll be nervous on your own?

Yeah, it's been a dream of mine since I was an early teen. I'm quite behind in my training as I took the best part of a year off to do my house, but it took me 14hrs of instruction to go solo. I'm at 30 something hours now, and literally just back to where I was 12 months ago. Almost to the week, actually - I should have done the flight I'm planning for Sun this time last year.

Always a bit weird being up by yourself, but like I say, it's only the landing away that's new

Done did a crazy week (for eg: on Thursday one of my clients Whatsapp messaged me exactly 100 times as well as sending several emails and four phone calls plus some missed calls) and at the same time as all that we were having a bit of a bad one with the boy (he is Not A Sleeper, still) so  things are kinda fraught. But! My M-I-L is unexpectedly back in the UK and Tina has taken Dylan there for the night and I've gone out for some beers and tomorrow I can wake up late and my goodness I needed that. 
Got some debts to pay by Saturday evening but I think it'll be OK.

Cheers! It turned out better than I thought. I wanted to make a freeze gun out of marshmallows, but couldn't find any cocktail sticks to bind them all together.

My attempts at cake really show the limits of my artistic ability :(

Its Friday again! Woot. Also, it stopped snowing and is supposed to be warm and sunny tomorrow. Which is good because I'm getting bored with Fallout 4.  Time to go outside!

There's an outside in Fallout 4 too, and it doesn't have snow there.

Yeah, I tried explaining that to the police but they're real grumpy buggers at times. :(

Oof, still snowing? Do you get anything resembling a summer there?
