I said I was puggled after Saturday. It was, to an extent, a turn of phrase. Certainly compared to what I did early this afternoon.

The Scout Hut entrance area and steps needed a bit of a tidy. So I decided to do it. Rather pleased with it.

Swear I’m an inch taller after my Investiture.

The Cub Leader got the 4 Sixers to read a line or so each of my chosen variation of The Scout Promise, which I repeated back whilst doing the Scout Sign. And then I shook hands with the Cub Leader.

Very special.

And so I’m an Assistant Cub Scout Leader proper now. 😊

(One of the most outgoing Cubs came over to congratulate me. They are going to be quite the Sixer when it’s their turn. 😀 )

My Scout Group necker, as presented to me last night at my Investiture.

Had a colourful afternoon.

I only went to say hello and have a look around, but I ended up helping for a few hours.

Got a loan of a necker and hat, they were prepared, naturally. Particularly grateful for the latter as I needed sun protection.

Met some familiar faces and some new ones, including the District Commissioner.

Just back from my (Assistant Cub) Scout training meeting. It was great. Lovely long chat about my training plan, and non-Scout-shaped things.

And my use of the hashtag this morning was unexpectedly prescient. I got a module signed off I wasn’t expecting tonight. So I’ve basically got a Full Appointment!

Did NOT see that coming. 😀

(It’s good to talk…apparently.)

hischeekiness,

Some thoughts I had last night.

The Scout Halls I visited was a great facility. I saw nothing but the outside, a corridor and a small room, but sometimes you can just tell. It’s purpose built, to be clear, they aren’t utilising another organisation’s premises.

Our District seems to be taking a very sensible approach to training given the uncertainty about how the new volunteering structure will look and the modules it will entail.

Time to finish preparations/approach planning for tonight’s Scout Group Leaders & Young Leaders trip.

Featuring such decisions as:

  • How blind do I want to be?
  • What outfit do I want my body put in after I’ve consumed half the lagoon?
  • How elegant should I attempt to be getting on board the kayak?
  • Do I fall in straight away to get the early laugh?
  • How much nonsense do I chat?
  • Do I embrace the “beginner” role?
    😜

I thought of an appropriately themed activity for the Gardening Badge earlier. 🏡

I won’t go into specifics right now, but I will say it would likely be very prominent in the Scout Hut grounds.

I’ll need to give it a little more thought. Must be thorough after all. But I think it’s worth considering. I do wonder if there’s enough time to do it this year though. 🤞
