So, this Gantt thing...

Until Matthew's reply to an earlier post, I'd never heard of this Gantt chart thing. But it sounds interesting - and possibly rather useful. I've downloaded a template from the Learning Skills site: it seems pretty straightforward.

However, things that seem straightforward to me usually end up being the wrong way to do things. (Wire doesn't work to hold drip hose in place, unless you wire the hose to a stake or handy bit of fallen branch - yes, I might try listening to my father next time). So Gantt-chart-users out there, what words of wisdom can you share?
