Upon typing 62nd Bristol Scouts into Google i happened to spot the incredible number of results it suggested their was…
41 800 in case yu cannot read it. The 6th or 7th entry down the list of Google entries then prodceeded to bring up this little joy:
So there you go girls, you’re not welcome here anymore!

Well done Jonty! There we were relaxing, enjoying the sunshine and merrily ignoring the half time entertainment on the Memorial Ground pitch, for Bristol Vs Rotherham, when all of a sudden we wents nuts. Running down the pitch in humerous costume in front of 4500 spectators was our very own Jonty. The crowd around us did seem to look at us…

According to New Scientist Magazine plugging your hair straightners into the local forest when on you next Scout Camp is not entirely impossible.

I not too sure if the 62nd Gurning Championship actually took place on Camp this year. However, little did we realise that the legend that is Michalea Strachan won the Female World Gurning Championships at Ergmont in 2002.

Those Ancient Egyptians also had problems with horrible buzzy insect things, as explained by a rather funny CBBC Programme. Pepi II of Ancient Egypt was so irritated by said buzzy flying insects that he ordered several naked slaves to cover themselves liberally in sticky sweet honey and stand away from him so the flies and other pests would swarm around them rather than him.
Ingenious! Our Scouts could have taken it in turns every day – Tesco Value honey is well cheap! We would even have let them keep their clothes on!
Why didn’t we think of that!?
