Lost property - Euro hike Camp map/roll mat

Eurohike sleeping mat/self/semi inflating mat was left behind at the Scout hut earlier today (Saturday 28th) if its yours, or you know whos it is please get in touch so it can be re-united with its owner thanks.

Due back

The minibus is due back just before 3pm about 2:50

That's all folks (well almost)

The sites clear all the kits packed up and the minibus is on the road, set off at 12:30 next stop Melbourne where we may need a hand unloading. The journey takes roughly 2 - 2.5 hours.

Washing up

That's about it, the Scouts are just doing a bit of washing up then the tents will start coming down and the big clear up begins, so far it's sunny but not quite as for as it haar been previously.

End of day 6

They are now all back on camp, and going to bed, as its the last night on camp some of them are sleeping outside.

Tomorrow we will have to take all the tents down and leave the site as we found it, the minibus is due to pick us up at 12pm at the moment we are still due back at around 3pm, although this may change due to traffic.

Once back at Melbourne it will then be a case of putting all the kit away, any help with this will be greatly appreciated.

if ( and we hope that its not) its wet all the tents will have to be put out/up to dry usually by laying them up inside the main hall in the Scout hut ( and any more of the space inside ), as the nursery, puddleducks have finished for the summer the building will thankfuly be free. again we will appreciate any help with this task.

More tomorrow all being well...

Hot chocolate

Friday afternoon

So far today its still sunny, with a bit of cloud taking the edge off the heat slightly.
most of the scouts are on the last few bits of activitys, and tonight for tea its fish and chips, after that its the end of camp disco, and as some of the Scouts have discovered some of the guides camped nearby things could be amusing, so far they have been trying to impress them by doing things such as eating worms or so they say(?) but im not too sure they ( our Scouts) are impressing them that much.
We will be keeping a close eye on things at the disco tonight.
