Thunder says ‘gong hei fat choi’

We cooked up a Feast for Chinese New Year. Make sure you get your scouts to cook for you. This came in at less than £2/head. Bargain!

Paralympic volleyball

843781_491197720924148_1834223559_oAfter years of playing crab football in the hut we took some inspiration from The Paralympics and had a go at sitting volleyball and it was a brilliant success.

We followed it up with a rather chaotic world tradig game that let some of our younger scouts show their leadership skills. If we can turn them into PLs, we should have a fun few years ahead.

Half a beautiful hut

While we’ve been enjoying our time off, John has been hard at work sanding and painting the hut. He’s done half of it.and it looks awesome.

Woe betide any child trying to scrape this paint away!

Chips and paper chains

Only 12 scouts last night thanks to.clashes with local carol concerts so we jumped into.the minibus for an impromptu chip survey.

image

Waiting for chips

Results to follow… We came back, made paper chains ans forgot to collate the reviews! D’oh!. It was more just a chip crawl than a chip survey, oops.

Home safely from Belgium.

We made it safely home with only a couple of hiccoughs. Everybody safe and healthy but rather sleepy. Facebook posts suggest that some of the scouts stayed home today but hey! I was in work at 8.30 today so no sympathy here 🙂
