Quick update on tasks

Hi all.

Well, I thought I would let everyone know that we have just over 11 weeks until show-time!! In order to be as prepared and organised as possible I have created a small list of things to do every week so that all areas are covered in time. Of course this list is just a guidline of the progress we should be making and in reality deadlines will alter as we go long but atleast this way we all know what needs to be done.
