Hi there,
Not finished yet but have completed Module 1 of the Ground School with a full time job and a family of three. Basically I do most of my reading on the train to work and back (about 1.5hrs a day). I managed the first lot in about 4-5 months and luckily passed 'em all first go. The trick here is to do a little everyday and not to make heavy weather of it. Simply getting 80somthing% in the progress tests is more than sufficient to move onto the next subject IMHO. The ATPLs are not hard to do it is all volume and psychological momentum.
As for the flying training I did my PPL every available weekend. I hour build at least every third weekend (bought a share to do this). I will be doing my CPL and IR 'part-time' too.
All my vacation has been absorbed into flying training this year. Hard work but I love it.
I am at an advantage though. Being older than the average wannabe I find things much easier to learn
