    I don't plan trout. I do pretty much everything on the fly. I might, say, plan as much as, I'm going to take a week and drive to so-and-so place. That is about the extent of my planning. No looking into hotels or where I'm gonna stay once I get there. smurf that. I'll figure it out along the way. I think it is more fun like that.

    As for budget planning and such. Also no. I spend my money until it is almost gone and then stop buying trout when the money runs out.

    I really vary.

    Sometimes I'm really loose and disorganised, drifting aimlessly. Major event coming up? Ah, whatever will be will be, it'll sort itself out.

    But then sometimes in my head, yeah, I plan to an extreme state. It can be about anything. Sometimes it's about such trivial and minor things. Going to the dentist? Plan the route (I've done it dozens of times) plan all possible parking spots (the same car park I use always has plenty of spaces) make sure I have change, plan what to do if something is wrong, think about conversations to have with workmates if they ask why I'm late and so on.

    I often do it at EoFF, actually, if I make a controversial post. I just made one in the football thread and I fully expect lonny bob and maybe Old Manus to have a moan about it, and I know just what I will say to them when they do and what they will likely say to that reply too. Happens in Mafia too. Jen once said I am a move ahead in Mafia - you don't know the half of it! This is not to say, by the way, I am good at predicting what happens all the time. I get it wrong too!

    I don't know why I can have a leisurely, calm, chilled out brain one minute and then a 100 mph let's work out every possibility for the future brain the next.

    I knew you'd know what I'd say and I knew what you'd say in reply. The conversation is complete ~in our minds~.

    I wasn't expecting a Heysel, gotta admit.

    Yes, I need to have a plan that I can go over 45,000 times in my head.

    I have checklists for things like packing the race trailer, or certain projects, but as far as socializing I'm much more spur of the moment/go with the flow.
