OK it now appears that my posts are taking 24 hours to appear. (Most confusing!)

I have one suggestion for you which is to make "Getting back into the MLO[/GTD?] habit" one of your projects.
I am a GTD and MLO newbie. And in my short experience, and as David Allen says, using the GTD methodology is quite an "all-or-nothing" thing.
i.e. You need to be able to put the whole of your life into the system, so that your mind actually trusts it to contain everything you need to remember.
So be aware that putting the final 10% of your stuff through the system is absolutely crucial!
Good luck and keep us posted. :)
They are a friendly, thoughtful and supportive bunch of users there.
