Nighttime organisation for early morning starts

I work away 2 weeks out of every 3, which means a lot of red eye flights to Heathrow.

I'm not too good at 'thinking' at 5.30am, and don't like to shuffle around blindly and wake the rest of the house at such a silly hour.

In the required order, I place clothes, shoes, jacket, wallet, house keys, and finally my case at pre determined places around house the night before... then follow the trail on my way out.

The system works a treat :)
