The explorers have broken out some consoles tonight.
There is Dance Central 3
And a bit of Call of Duty
And some sitting around
While the rest are doing karaoke on the PS2 in the top hut but we have been banned from taking pictures.
We’ll hear this week how much we raised on the litter picking, we’ll let you know as soon as we do.
In the meantine:
If every family does this and spends £250 on the internet between now and Christmas (including tesco, sainsbury’s, waitrose and asda), we would earn about £300 in a month ish. Just by sitting at a computer.
We get a donation from hundreds of internet shops (all the big ones and many small ones) and it is so easy… you don’t need to register, fill in extra forms etc…
Go to our website: 5bs.org and click of the link at the bottom of the page
or look over there on the right… a big advert, just click click click >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
then just search the shop that you are buying from. It then sorts out all the payments etc… Â why not bookmark our page for next time? Just use it as a portal to shop through.
Download and install the toolbar and it will make sure that you never miss a chance to donate to the 5th and it offers you bargains and deals from the shops you visit.
Please take the time to do this. It’s free money for us. Sometimes the donations are quite significant – i bought a bike rack in June from Evans for £140 and in return, we earned over £5 . Lots of £30 purchases add up to lots of £1 donations.  It costs nothing to you.
with the toolbar, i have the opportunity when i visit a page to click ‘yes’ to donate to the 5th. When i do that, it pings me first to a page of voucher codes etc that could save me money. It’s been rather useful on occasion.
Please give this a try. As we say, it’s free money.
Brilliant night. Such good fun and something that Phil only runs every couple of years because it is expensive but 14 explorers piled into the minibus for a night of go karting.

We pinched an idea from the scouts but the explorers did it with rather less mess.
Check out all the photos here and there is a link at the bottom for the full size pics.

Thanks to our volunteer network techs, we managed to set up cat’s cradle of Ethernet cable (there is a joke in there about cat5 cable/ cat’s cradle but I’ve not had enough coffee to nail it)
We have 20 or so PCs set up for JOTI
As well as a raspberry pi or two to do an introduction to coding.
And we’ve got a brand new map to record all our contacts
I hope that we see all our beavers, cubs, scouts and explorers at the hut over the weekend to take part. All info is on our website about times etc
jamboree on the internet at the fifth – clicky
There is a webcam on there and a live map will be up.there to.record our contacts.
We have invited local troops to.take part too and all local leaders are v welcome. Please introduce yourself when you.arrive and we will alway have coffee brewing and the urn boiling.
Special thanks to Trinity School for their donation of 10 PCs last month.Â
Our explorers joined 150 others from across the new Bromley Scout District for MESH VIII (Mixing Explorer Scouts Holiday).
They took part in Medieval themed activities throughout the weekend and we even used our Tipi Stove for the first time. (Thank you Awards for All)
Check out our pics from the weekend (and see the full size images on the smugmug gallery @scoutsphotos.com

Here are our medieval explorers ready for the disco.
10 explorers from our Vultures ESU have joined 150 other explorers from across Bromley for the annual Mesh Camp.
And now they are all in the marquee watching Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Last Wednesday, the explorers made their own pizza dough and toppings and they all made something edible! Check out the photos below for a really successful evening, they even got their dough to rise.
Maybe they just need a few more washing up lessons but this was a great night for the leaders and explorers.
