But what lies beneath!? I hear you cry. Alas, it’s more than my jobsworth to tell you, but upon entering beware of…

…the ‘Web of Deceit’, ‘There and Back Again Lane’, ‘Bridge of Terror’, ‘Slide to Infinity’…

Bristol rovers vs. Leeds obstructed a couple of offers of help but we persisted anyway!

Tune in later in the week to see more photos – you should see the hall after Wednesday’s session!

The Red Arrows arrived and so did the rain, the Red Arrows disappeared and so did the Rain, the Red arrows came back and so did the rain, the Red Arrows finally left for good, and so did the rain, well almost apart from a couple of minutes outbreak half an hour later.

There we were thinking shame about the rain as their display was sadly clearly changed. However, what is interesting is all these reports in National newspapers:

Daily Mail

The Sun

Telegraph

The repeat of Swansea mud from last year, should be a remote thing assigned to history, for this year at least. Weather forcasters, but is Dave one of them(!?), are predicting better weather for this year…

…except for one small part of Cornwall.

It was such a good day that it’s taken me until now to recover and enter something on the blog…

Glorious sunshine, spectacular setting, wonderful people, lovely ceremony and several Scout leaders looking very smart indeed.

Despite finding out that best man duties are indeed copious, it was a great honour! I finally relaxed about 2 in the morning, flopping down in front of a repeat of Britain’s Got Talent on an enormous TV.

Congratulations Dan and Rachel and thank you for a brilliant day.

Describing their favourite playground game, ”It is an army game where people go to war (not real) to defend other people.

My personal favourite quote, this time explaining who else would like to play their game, “I think people, like old people, would like it but the thing is they have to walk with a stick.” In case you were wondering the game they were describing was, Bull Dog…

When writing about a treasure hunt one person wrote clues and then followed it up with this, “When I put the bee and kiwi there you might have got a bit muddled but I mean a teacher dressed up as a bee and a teacher dressed up as a kiwi.”

Obviously! I knew that! I’ll go and dig out my kiwi costume now shall I!?
