you should be fine. it is best to take them at the same time every day but an hour or two won't have any adverse affect. but always try to take it as close to on time as you possibly can.

Missing your pill by a few hours is NOT going to effect you. You would know this if you had taken the time to read the dosing instructions included with every single packet of pills.
The problems arise when you fail to take your pill for DAYS at a time, not hours.

if you are only off by a couple hrs, but anything more than 8hrs off will affect how effective the pill is. it usually happens to me where i take my pill late about once a month. you should be fine.
