Today is Friday again and I can’t believe that it is a week since we started the Flower Festival. The arrangements have been put up, admired and then dismantles all within one week! At least we took photos of them as a permanent memory.
It is only three weeks until I do my Cub Camp and try to attain my Nights Away Permit. It didn’t sound too bad when it was months away, but as it is now weeks away I think I have taken on something that is growing like ‘Topsy’.
I hope that we haven’t had the last of the good weather as I don’t fancy camping in rain – but hey it all adds to the experience of a true camp. At least I have my own large tent or mansion (as my son calls it) mind you he is quite happy to bag a sleeping place in it when I take it anywhere! So why do I do camping when there are huts that you can use with hot running water and showers, and beds!!? I ask myself that many times but can never seem to reach an answer. Perhaps it’s because it stops young children sitting in front of computers all day in the holidays. Some good fresh air and exercise is what they need to make them sleep. Sometimes, though, they are still awake at midnight on the first night – we are shattered and can’t wait to get to ours!! Hopefully they will enjoy camp and will get some fun and achievements out of the activities!
Oh well I had better finish as I still have mountains of studying to do.
