1st Pontygwaith Scout Group

The cubs and scouts will be going over the farm this Thursday (31^st May).

Leaving the hall at 12 noon, not sure what time coming back depends on the weather.

Bring boots, waterproofs and warm clothes.

And don’t forget to bring food to cook on the camp fire.

Caitlin came home last night to spend an evening with her Mammy (well see Tilly actually I think 😜) but I let her down badly. After tea we sat down to watch telly and 5 minutes in to the programme I was asleep. But I did have a genuine excuse. Camp with 8-10 year olds. ☹☹☹

My previous night. All in sleeping bags my 11.30pm (that’s good). 12 midnight. Two boys come down one is homesick love him. Settled him. Half hour later same two are back again. Then another one wants a water bottle filled. One of the first two come back to use the toilet FOUR times during the night. Another boy for the toilet then he returned 10 mins later to tell me there’s a rude word written on his bed aarrrgggg! By this time it’s 5am. Attempted to light the Aga for breakfast (unsuccessfully call myself a cub leader 🙁) oh I’d also been up 3 times to tell them to be quiet that was about 4am.

And then Scout Leader is knocking the door at 7.15 because it’s time to get up 😳.

Here are some links to to photographs of the surfing: part 1, part 2 and part 3.

Building shelter, nearly finished.

sushi – すし, 寿司, 鮨

That looks tasty.

Looks like some ninjas have invaded Pontygwaith Scouts….not sure if the food is home made but it looks OK to me.

Did anyone try Sumo wrestling?

Nice try – Origami.

For more photos have a look on Facebook.

It is nearly Christmas again, and the Scout postal service is  starting back up.
