Idiom: "To make a plan"

Hi

Is the idiom "to make a plan" common among native speakers at all?

I know it's going to be difficult to find the time, but I'll make a plan.

Thanks,

Tom

Thanks, Clive.

I think I should have given some details in my original post. Just to make sure I got the right point across...

Idiom: To make a plan = to think of something you can do to solve a problem or make something happen.

According to some dictionaries, the idiom comes from SAfrE.

I know it may rain but I'll make a plan.

In that sense, it is not idiomatic in British English.

I'd probably say "I'll come up with something" or " I'll think of something".
