Scouts Ban Knives Shock Horror Probe!!!!1!!!!11

Did I miss the discussion about this on here or are we all treating the
Daily Wail article (and all the lazy journos who picked it up and bunged it
in their papers) with the contempt that they so rightly deserve?
for those who had the good fortune to miss the made-up story:-

Euro Legal Minibus
Mon, 7 Sep 2009 09:11:16 -0700 (PDT)
A short plea to the group to see if anyone has a Euro Legal 17-seater
minibus they would consider hiring to me for a week next August.
Willing to pay commercial rates.
I'm up to speed with what's required for taking one of these abroad
and have the necessary license.
Hope someone can help!

Hadrian's Wall Trail

Several of the Explorers (and their leader...) quite fancy walking
this. Has anyone any experience and / or tips? Particularly - before
I go through the entire route on the map, does anyone know the maximum
extent of the route? Terrain One?
All help most gratefully received!
Kind regards,

Re-Union(s)
Sun, 6 Sep 2009 23:47:45 +0100
I've been to a re-union this weekend. No, not *that* re-union (at
Gilwell) - it's the centenary of the church where I was
christened, and previous members of the youth groups who met at
the church were invited to the celebrations, ably organised by my
brother as the Chairman of the Centenary Committee (he's no ...

Anybody else seen it and what did you think or am I just
getting ..... off current things ...

a few stories of the very many out there that clearly demonstrate that
the decision makers and PR machine at the top in the RSPCA is rotten
to the core!

Happy 100th Birthday to Guides everywhere
Sat, 5 Sep 2009 11:32:24 +0000 (UTC)
The subject really says it all; 100 years ago today was the Crystal
Palace Boy Scout Rally, to which a few brave girls went and they told
Baden-Powell that they wanted something for the girls. So off he went
and got his sister Agnes and they formed Guiding! Happy Birthday!
Cakes all round (Scouts can have th ...
